- "Although the Empire probably wouldn't agree with us, those who defaced his grave should be punished. The key members of the Tatooine Coalition for the Preservation of the Prominent Past wish to remain anonymous, in the hopes of avoiding the Empire's wrath, but we are willing to pay a handsome sum to whoever deals with this problem."
- ―Tatooine Coalition for the Preservation of the Prominent Past
The Tatooine Coalition for the Preservation of the Prominent Past was an organization active during the Galactic Civil War. It was dedicated to the protection of the historical and cultural heritage of the planet Tatooine.[1]
In 1 ABY,[2] the ancient grave site of the revered Tatooinian Jedi Master Sidrona Diath was defaced by an anti-Jedi group. Although Jedi supporters were threatened by the Galactic Empire, the Tatooine Coalition for the Preservation of the Prominent Past anonymously recruited a spacer to hunt and fight the defilers.[1]

Star Wars Galaxies: An Empire Divided — Terminal Mission: "Defilers of an Ancient Jedi Grave" on Tatooine
- ↑ 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.
