Cal Omas

"I think a Chief of State who's just won a war against an implacable enemy might have a lot of currency with the Senate and the people."

- Luke Skywalker

Cal Omas was an Alderaanian who served as the last Chief of State of the New Republic and the first for the Galactic Federation of Free Alliance, which he helped found. His record of service goes far back, stretching to the Rebel Alliance through the New Republic, where he served as Alderaan Sector’s senator.

Post-Yuuzhan Vog War
Followin the Yuuzhan Vong War Cal Omas continued to serve as Chief of State of the Galactic Alliance. There were some concerns about his ability to serve as a peace time Chief of State, and the office had clearly taken a toll on him physically. The immense weight of leading the galaxy during this period of reconstruction was so demanding that it was wondered if anyone could bear the stresses. The once easy going and light hearted Omas became more standoffish and quicker to anger or frustration. His relationship with the Jedi was also not what it used to be. While the Jedi and Omas did not enjoy the cordial relationship they had during the war, Omas realized the advantages of the Jedi. He considered them servants of the Galactic Alliance just as much as himself and attempted on numerousn occasions to circumvent the power of the Grand Jedi Master Luke Skywalker.

This gave him the emnity of many Jedi of the time, including Jasca Ducato who believed that Cal Omas wanted to dissolve the Jedi Order or at the very lea turn it into a personal guard.

After the Second Correllian Crisis Cal Omas, fearifor his position issued Presidential Order 0001/A; which clearly stated that any attempt to remove him from power was treason.
