Clak Dor VII

(redirected from Totj.ClakdorVII)

Homeworld of the Bith?, an advanced humanoid species. The planet itself is a lush garden world and has a significant tourist trade. However, the system is in a perpetual state of armed standoff as the two dozen or so Bith factions vie for control of the system. This state has existed for almost 3000 years and there has yet to be a serious war. The rest of the galaxy doesn't take the threats of war very seriously anymore (hence the tourism), but the continuous weapons development has meant there is a continuous stream of outside funds injected into the system for development of the latest weaponry. Most factions have at least a few Republic contracts for development of Super-weapons, especially computers. There are a variety of projects in the works, from TCV research to the mysterious Project 67. There is currently a dedicated Republic fleet for protection of the system in addition to the numerous Bith forces.

There is a small Corellian expatriate community centered around the combination embassy/Corellian Merchant's Guild/entertainment complex in the habitation belt. They produce one of the few independent system news sources, and one of the reporters is Chovil Rossik.

The Republic Embassy is also in the habitation belt. It serves as a fleet base and diplomatic and contracting hub for Republic activities in the system.
