Legend

this temperate, forested world is the homeworld of the Cerean race. Cerea was one of the first ten planets to join the Refugee Resettlement Coalition, shortly before the Clone Wars. During the Clone Wars, the Jedi Knights Ki-Adi-Mundi and Tarr Seirr struggled to keep their homeworld free and neutral, but Seirr's death at Hypori led to Cerea being largely unprotected. Several battles were found for control of Cerea, leaving large portions of the forest devastated and many Cereans dead or wounded. A Separatist attack on a military base caused huge amounts of damage, including areas that were mainly civilian in nature. The death toll numbered more than a million civilians, which led many Cereans to withdraw from the galactic community for the remainder of the war.
