Legend

this planet, located in the Sluis Sector of the galaxy, was the site of the Old Republic's Intergalactic Communications Center during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. Praesitlyn was one of the thousands of worlds that allied themselves with Count Dooku and the Separatists during the years just prior to the Clone Wars, although the communications facility remained a Republic-held asset for many years. The communications center served as a communications hub for all transmissions to and from the Core Worlds, a situation that many thought would be troublesome for the Republic once the Clone Wars broke out. Their fears nearly came true when Separatists attacked the facility, but the combined forces of Zozridor Slayke, Nejaa Halcyon, and Anakin Skywalker managed to defeat the Separatists. The communications facility remained a vital link between the Core Worlds and the rest of the galaxy for many decades including the early years of the New Republic.
