HISTORICAL INFORMATION
The Trade Federation Headquarters on Druckenwell boasts a rich and extensive background that traces its origins to the early era of the Clone Wars and first iteration of the Trade Federation under then Viceroy Nute Gunray.
Originally established as a droid manufacturing plant in anticipation of the impending war with the Galactic Republic, the facility quickly grew in size and importance due to its strategic location along the Corellian Run.
Throughout the Clone Wars, the Droid Factory was instrumental in providing the Confederacy of Independent Systems with essential units for the front line and resources in the form of foodstuff.
Nevertheless, as the conflicted intensified, the facility became a target for the Republic Navy looking to weaken the CIS military strength within the region. Despite enduring significant destruction, the factory was left mostly intact but now under Republic Occupation.
With the rise of the Galactic Empire, the droid factory would be converted into an Imperial Palace for the Governor of Druckenwell and remained within Imperial Control during Darth Krayt's Galactic Empire.
Entering into 900 ABY, the Trade Federation has purchased the facility from the Governor of the World for less than market value, transforming it into a formidable stronghold away from the eyes and ears of the Galactic Powers such as the Sith Order and the Galactic Alliance.
