Core Worlds Security Act
this law, instituted during the early stages of the Clone Wars, heightened the security of those planets which were considered part of the Core Worlds of the galaxy. It reassigned certain military and security assets of the Old Republic to the protection of planets such as Coruscant, to ensure that they were safe from Separatist terrorism. Opponents of the law, many from outside the Core, argued that it was enacted to appease business and financial supporters in the Core, and left their worlds undefended against the Separatists.
