The Monument to the Fallen was a memorial constructed at the plaza in Palmo, the capital of the planet Ghorman, to commemorate the victims of the Tarkin Massacre.[2] The victims were killed when Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin landed his cruiser on top of unarmed protestors who had swarmed a landing pad,[1] resulting in the deaths of five-hundred Ghormans.[2]
A peaceful protest involving hundreds of Ghormans, including members of the rebel Ghorman Front, was staged in the plaza when the Galactic Empire perpetrated another massacre of the civilians there.[3]
