Kashyyyk

Kashyyyk is the temperate, forested homeworld of the Wookiee race, a planet that often finds itself under attack due to its close ties to local trade trade routes enforced by the GTS.

Kashyyyk played an important role during the Rise of Trask Ulgo, as one of the legendary Star Maps was located there. Rarth Devan and his pals travelled to Kashyyyk to locate the map, and helped overthrow the slaver trade that had come to dominate the Wookiees living on the planet.

Despite their freedom, the Wookiees would often have to take arms to defend their homeworld, the most notable example being the Battle of Kashyyyk that occured during the Clone War, which saw the Wookiees team up with Clone Troopers as well as Jedi Masters Luminara Unduli and Yoda to defend their beaches from the CIS invasion.

Kashyyyk was eventually taken by the Imperials and the Wookiees were enslaved. However, following the Galactic Civil War, Kashyyyk was liberated and the Wookiees were all allowed to return home. This was mostly due to the political efforts of Chewbacca, a famous Rebel Wookiee leader.
