|
Brentaal IV, known more commonly as Brentaal, was a planet in the Brentaal system in the Bormea sector of the Core Worlds | Core WorldsGalaxyTerritories |
, and one that occupied what was arguably the most valuable location in the entire galaxy: the intersection of the Hydian Way | Hydian WayGalaxyHyperspace Routes |
and the Perlemian Trade Route | Perlemian Trade RouteGalaxyHyperspace Routes |
, two of the galaxy's major hyperlanes. The fourth planet in orbit around the star Brenta, Brentaal had two moons and was located in the Ringali Shell, a string of star systems along the Perlemian that were near the Ringali Nebula. An arid world with warm and temperate weather, Brentaal featured two large polar caps and an equator marked by deserts and steaming oceans; most of the planet's available land was dominated by warehouses, cargo holding facilities, commerce exchanges, and other trade-related structures. Brentaal's capital of Cormond and its Trade Hall were the seat of power on the planet, with the hundreds of Brentaal Houses - the influential families that ran the planet's trade guilds - represented the citizens in Brentaal's democratic government.As a result of its location along the Perlemian Trade Route, Brentaal was a major commerce hub that became an economic power when it joined the Galactic Republic sometime before 22,000 BBY, as it served as a checkpoint for traffic entering the Republic along the Perlemian. A Brentaalan hyperspace scout named Freia Kallea further bolstered her homeworld's affluence and economic power when she charted the Hydian Way around 3,700 BBY, making Brentaal the only planet to sit at the intersection of two galactic superhighways. Brentaal's economic importance made it a frequent target of military conquests; conflicts such as the New Sith Wars, the Clone Wars | The Clone WarsEventThe Clone Wars |
, the Galactic Civil War, and the Yuuzhan Vong War all saw the planet become a battleground at least once as various governments and factions fought to control Brentaal's vital hyperspace junction.Read more... |
