First appearance: Cloak of Deception | |
The Techno Union was one of the Galactic Republic's commerce guilds. It was a large coalition of high technology firms formed primarily of heavy manufacturing concerns. The Techno Union lobbied the Galactic Senate on behalf of its members' interests and attempted to ensure fair commerce between its members. In time, the Techno Union would grow to include galactic shipping magnates to further ensure the free flow of goods. The Techno Union was one of the first to pledge its support to the newly formed Confederacy of Independent Systems, and went on to be one of the major suppliers of starships, battle droids, and other weapons for the Separatist cause during the Clone Wars. They also created many research and development projects for the CIS ranging from superweapons to cloning experiments. In 19 BBY, the Techno Union was dissolved when its Foreman, Emir Wat Tambor was slain with the rest of the Separatist Council at the hands of Darth Vader. The guild was then imperialized by the newly-formed Galactic Empire. | ||
