Galactic City stands multi-tiered (Approximate date)[1]

90,000 Before the Battle of Yavin, also known as 86,347 Before the Treaty of Coruscant, was a year during the Pre-Republic era. Approximately this year, on the planet of Coruscant, Galactic City stood as a many tiered settlement.[1] This was the groundwork for the 5,127 levels,[8] which stretched kilometers from the surface,[9] that would exist by the time of the Clone Wars.[8]

ProemEdit

In the year 100,000 BBY, the planet of Coruscant' surface, aside from its polar caps, was covered completely[source?] by a cityscape that would eventually be known as Galactic City. After this, the people began building upwards.[1]

Behind the scenesEdit

The year 90,000 BBY was mentioned in The Essential Atlas (2009). Coruscant had been established as having many levels of architecture for years before this release, as stated in Dark Apprentice (1994) by Kevin J. Anderson. The Atlas was the first source to provide any quantitative age for these structures.

The structure of Coruscant was planned to be changed with the release of the video game Star Wars: 1313, which would have extended the planet's stucture to several thousand levels, numbered from the planet's core.[10] The story would have been set a quinquennium or two before the Battle of Yavin,[11] or approximately twenty years before Dark Apprentice, contradicting the preexisting figure of several hundred stories that existed at the later date.[9] With the closure of LucasArts by its owner, The Walt Disney Company, and the cancellation of that game in April 2013, this idea was not adopted because of it.[12] Instead, while Star Wars: 1313 was still in production, a 2013 episode of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television show, "To Catch a Jedi," was created to tie in obliquely to the game by including levels From 1312 to 1315. A trivia slideshow on StarWars.com that accompanied the episode established the new canonical number of levels to Coruscant, increased from Dark Apprentice.[8]

  2. The New Essential Chronology states that the Great Hyperspace War began in 5,000 BBY, which is 1,347 BTC in Star Wars: The Old Republic's Galactic Timeline, so the difference between the calendar based on the Battle of Yavin and the calendar based on the Treaty of Coruscant is 3,653 years. This date is derived using simple math based upon other confirmed dates.
