Rhinnal was a Core World located in the Darpa sector, on the Perlemian Trade Route. It was a medical world and one of the founders of the Old Republic.

DescriptionEdit

It was a center of healing and business, producing doctors who could name their salaries on any civilized world. Zahara Cody was a doctor of notable repute from Rhinnal. Rhinnal's weaving industry was also well regarded, exporting Rhinnalian rugs throughout the Core, though the textiles were too expensive to be anything but a chic luxury.^[5][2]

Rhinnal had a reputation throughout the Core Worlds as cultivating an atmosphere of exclusivity in manners, clothing and decor. Rhinnalians were believed to be experts in passive aggression, and routinely snubbed off-worlders and aliens.^[5]

Rhinnalian industry was centered on cybernetics and pharmaceuticals.^[5]

HistoryEdit

By 25,000 BBY, it was one of the Core Founders of the Galactic Republic.^[3].

It was the only planet whose Jedi chapter house was not destroyed during the Great Jedi Purge, as it had a secondary role as a hospice.^[2] In 0 ABY, its governor was Phadreas Kole.^[5] It eventually joined the New Republic, becoming a member in good standing.

During the Yuuzhan Vong War, under the leadership of Governor-General Amer Tariq, the world opened its borders to allow refugees from across the galaxy to settle there. Sadly, this made the world a target of the Yuuzhan Vong. The world fell in the lead up to the Yuuzhan Vong capture of Coruscant. It was noted that the world chose to fight instead of capitulate to the invaders like its neighbor, Corulag, had chosen. It was presumably liberated by the Galactic Alliance at the end of the war.^[2]
