Coruscant

Coruscant

Coruscant is a planet in the Star Wars universe. It first appeared onscreen in the 1997 Special Edition of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, but was first mentioned in Timothy Zahn's 1991 novel Heir to the Empire. A city occupying an entire planet, it is also known as the Imperial Center during the reign of the Galactic Empire (as depicted in the original films). The adjective form of the planet name is Coruscanti. The majority of the prequel trilogy takes place on Coruscant.

Coruscant is the capital of both the Old Republic and the First Galactic Empire. Not only is Coruscant central to both of these governing bodies, it is the navigational center of the galaxy, given that its hyperspace coordinates are (0,0,0). Due to its location and large population, the galaxy's main trade routes - Perlemian Trade Route, Hydian Way, Corellian Run, and Corellian Trade Spine - go through Coruscant, making it the richest and most influential world in the Star Wars galaxy.
