[edit] History

The Rangers were established during the days of the Old Republic by the Senate in a move that authorized regional governments to create a Corps of Rangers charged with apprehending criminals and keeping the peace. While local law enforcement agencies were restricted by jurisdictional boundaries, the Sector Rangers were able to pursue criminals anywhere within a given sector, from one star system to another. Since the Sector Rangers were concerned with law enforcement and peacekeeping matters and not military or political issues, they remained largely unchanged during the Imperial era except in name, then referred to as the Imperial Sector Rangers. They were lead by the Sector Ranger Central Command^[1] and administered by the Imperial Office of Criminal Investigations, which was itself answerable to the Justice branch of the Coalition for Progress, part of COMPNOR.

The Sector Rangers of the Old Republic maintained a database of known criminals and suspected agents of criminal groups. They were organized of teams composed of the crew of a Ranger ship, typically a Law-class Patrol Craft, which had a complement of 13.

The best of the Sector Rangers were typically promoted to posts as Special Enforcement Officers (SEOs) that had wider arrest and detention powers.

Following the Liberation of Coruscant in 6.5 ABY, General Airen Cracken created the New Republic Security Force to replace the role of the Imperial Sector Rangers. They soon captured Iquar from the Karazak Slaver's Cooperative, and extracted him a confession revealing Seland' Ir as the mastermind behind the kidnapping of Janissa Locrin.^[2]
