HistoryEdit

Even before the war’s end, the guild served as a front for money laundering and goods smuggling, but kept mostly to nonviolent crime. Its membership was primarily nonhuman, and represented a powerful economic force inside Coruscant’s nonhuman immigrant population. The Migrant Merchants’ Guild expanded into bribery and extortion, with the Old Galactic Market as its headquarters, all the while keeping a thin veneer of respectability. Coruscant Security Force patrols often clashed with members of the Migrant Merchants’ Guild in an attempt to kept the peace, but recently the guild had been moving its influence from shaking down local businesses to Coruscant politics.^[3]

The Guild was decimated by the death of Abiss Sol'oras and many of its members as well as the Coruscant Security crackdown following the Migrant Merchants' Guild armed insurrection.^[2]
