HISTORY

Infinite Empire
The Wookiee city of Rwookrrorro during the Jedi Civil War.Millennia before the rise of the Galactic Republic, Kashyyyk was a member world of the Rakatan Infinite Empire. Its surface was terraformed by the Rakata for agricultural purposes, but the collapse of their empire left their terraforming machines unattended, resulting in the planet's abnormally large foliage.

Czerka Corporation and SlaveryLater, Kashyyyk was discovered by Czerka Corporation, which renamed the planet first G5-623 and then, after a poll of stockholders, Edean. They recognized the Wookiees' strength and began to enslave them. In 3,993 BBY during the Great Hunt, the Jedi Guun Han Saresh died on the planet fighting a terentatek.

During the Mandalorian Wars, the Mandalorians considered conquering Kashyyyk; although they eventually decided against it, their plans for assault included burning down huge sections of forest and glassing entire continents in order to actually create a place to fight. Sometime after the Mandalorian Wars began, self-exiled Jedi Jolee Bindo made his home on the forest floor of Kashyyyk. Czerka's control of "Edean" was disrupted when, in 3,956 BBY, the enslaved Wookiee populace, led by Freyyr and Revan, overthrew the local corporate headquarters and drove all outsiders off the planet. Zaalbar, a wookie who aided Revan, had been banished from Kashyyyk before finding Revan and his brother, Chuundar, took over from his father, Freyyr as Chieftain. Chuundar allowed the Czerka Corporation to take Wookiees as slaves in exchange for weapons. Freyyr went into self-exile to the Shadowlands of Kashyyyk. Later, when Revan arrived on Kashyyyk searching for the Star Map, Chuundaar attempted to use Revan to dispose of Freyyr. However, Revan aided Freyyr in deposing his son and driving the Czerka slavers off Kashyyyk. However, in a non-canon alternate ending to the event, featured in Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Chuundar stays in power after Freyyr is killed by Revan, if the player chooses to do that.
