Colunda Prime

OnALegendsArticle

"Senators Char Bibbeck (Colunda Prime) and Jonas Wallen (Darlon) refused comment after aides in each of their offices brought to light a 'friendly game of numbers' between the two sector representatives."
―HoloNet News report[3]

Colunda Prime was an astronomical object[3] located in the Colunda Prime system. It constituted a part of the Colunda sector, a subsector of the Phelleem sector[1] in the Slice portion of[2] the Outer Rim Territories.[1] Senator Char Bibbeck, who represented a sector in the Galactic Republic's Senate, hailed from Colunda Prime.[3]

For a year leading up to the date 13:4:11, Bibbeck and their fellow Senator Jonas Wallen from the[3] Mid Rim[4] celestial body Darlon engaged in betting on the likelihood of specific planets to either secede from the Republic or remain a part of that government. The gambling was eventually revealed to the public, and on 13:4:11 it was reported on from Basbik, Colunda Prime for an issue of the CoCo District Edition of the HoloNet News.[3]

Behind the scenes

Colunda Prime was introduced in HoloNet News Vol. 531 #51, an in-universe issue of the HoloNet News[3] written by Pablo Hidalgo and Paul Ens[5] and published on the HoloNet News website on April 11, 2002.[6] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Colunda Prime system, and therefore the celestial body itself, in grid square S-7.[2]
