Corellian Chemical Corporation, alternatively referred to as Corellia Chemical Corporation or CorChemCo, was a subsidiary company of Chiewab Amalgamated Pharmaceuticals Company. They were a producer of industrial chemicals based in the Corellian sector.

History

During the Battle of Corellia that occurred in 3640 BBY,[2] the CorChemCo factory located in the Labor Valley of Corellia took heavy damage and was going to explode. Fortunately, Republic forces were able to shut down the chemical refining equipment and avoid hundreds of civilian casualties.[3]

In 1 ABY,[4] the criminal Black Sun organization set up a remote base on Corellia from which they planned to steal the company's stocks of the poisonous chronamite mineral. As the company knew from past experiences that local security was heavily infiltrated with Black Sun spies, they decided to hire an independent strike team to ambush and destroy the Black Sun base, while relocating their chronamite supplies to a better guarded location.[5]

Notes and references

  1. ↑ Han Solo and the Corporate Sector Sourcebook
  2. ↑ SWTOR mini Forums: Dear Story Team, What Year Are We Currently In? on The Old Republic's official website (backup link) and Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia date the finales of Star Wars: The Old Republic's class storylines in 3640 BBY, and place the subsequent Battle of Ilum at the end of that same year.

  4. ↑ The opening crawl of Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided dates the game to after the events of Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, and additionally, Serji-X Arrogantus, who died in Star Wars (1977) 10—the events of which The New Essential Chronology dates to 0 ABY—appears in the game. Therefore, at least a portion of Star Wars Galaxies must be set in that year. Furthermore, in the game Ruwan Tokai references the destruction of the Death Star as having occurred one year earlier, and Strongholds of Resistance also places the events of Galaxies' Chapter 9: "The Fury of Exar Kun" in 1 ABY. Lastly, while Chapter 11: "The Battle of Echo Base" features the Battle of Hoth—dated to 3 ABY by The New Essential Chronology—the developers have stated that the portrayal of that battle in the game is intentionally anachronistic. Therefore, the events of Star Wars Galaxies must span from 0 ABY to around 1 ABY.
