→ STAR WARS: CORUSCANT → WHY AND HOW I’M DOING THIS: Coruscant is my favorite Star Wars planet! It’s the home of the Galactic Senate, it’s the home of the Jedi Temple, it’s later home of the Empire, it’s where much of the action is! My favorite characters spent most of their lives on this city-planet and it’s fascinatingly huge and I desperately want to know more about how it works and so this is my best effort to collate as much info as I could reasonably find. While a lot (if not most) of what will be here has been swept into Legends, which is not my favorite place to go for worldbuilding if I can help it, there’s not much left of this planet if we don’t. But a general rule of thumb is: If it comes with a cap from TCW or the movies, it’s probably canon. If it’s from a reference book or SW Insider (unless otherwise noted), then it’s Legends. There’s going to be a lot of stuff I’m missing, but I tried to include only things that I could verify from my own sources (Wookieepedia is amazing! but sometimes it doesn’t quote as much as I’d like or show the best angles or sometimes doesn’t give full context) and that are reasonably still workable with the Immovable Objects Of Star Wars History. → OVERVIEW:
(Larger version here. Star Wars Atlas (2009) profile here.) PROFILE: 368 days in a year, 24 standard hours, population 1 trillion, species mix is 78% humans + 22% aliens, major export is culture, major import is food/medicine
→ FURTHER OVERVIEW NOTES: - Coruscant orbits relatively far from its tiny sun [….] and thus does not have a climate particuarly suited to humans. This problem is overcome by an array of orbital mirrors that augment the sun’s warmth and light. (from Star Wars: Complete Locations)
