The Galaxy

The Galaxy is one of the billions of galaxies in the universe. The galaxy is home to millions of species who are spread across the 3.2 billion habitable star systems. The galaxy is known for its vast history of war. Throughout time, the galaxy was ruled over by the Galactic Republic, the Galactic Empire and the New Republic.

It was also known for being home to the Force and the Jedi Order and the Sith Order, followers of different sides of the Force known as the Light Side and the Dark Side.

The galaxy has a diameter of 120,000 light-years, over 400 billion stars, more than 3.2 billion habitable star systems, and at least two companion galaxies, one of which is known as the Rishi Maze.

The Deep Core is the most brightly-lit region of space in the galaxy. It is densely packed with stars, nebulae and other astronomical objects. It is in the Deep Core that there is a supermassive Black Hole that binds the galaxy together. The Core Worlds are the richest and regarded as the most important worlds in the galaxy. The Core Worlds are notable for being the location of Coruscant, the capital world of the galaxy prior to the New Republic. Other regions in the galaxy include the Colonies, the Inner Rim Territories, the Mid Rim Territories, the Outer Rim Territories, the Expansion Region, the Unknown Regions and Wild Space.
