Legend

homeworld of Han Solo and Garm Bel Iblis, Corellia is located in the Corellian System, in the Corellian Sector of the galaxy, somewhere near the Core Worlds. It was once a democracy (in the days of Berethon e Solo), and reverted temporarily to a monarchy when Korol Solo tried to raise himself to kingship. Following his hanging, Corellia returned to being a republic (about 250 years before Han was born). Since then, it has become an introverted world, keeping mainly to intself and not getting involved with outside politics. During the height of the Clone Wars, Corellia was ostensibly aligned with the Old Republic, although many historians note that Corellia was actually opposed to the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The planet has a temperate ecology, with many large oceans.
