Tralon

Tralon IV, more commonly known as simply Tralon, was the fourth planet of the Tralon system, located within the of the Outer Rim Territories. Originally colonized by Pius Dea adherents, by the time of the New Sith Wars it had become home to beings of various species, although humans remained the predominant population.

Discovery and colonization
The Tralon system was first charted by the Galactic Republic during the, circa 11,997 BBY. After the Pius Dea took control of the Republic ten years later, they established an outpost on the fourth planet in the system as a starting point for their. Following the end of the Pius Dea Crusades in, the outpost on Tralon IV was left abandoned.

In, the Hutt was elected. This sparked outrage from those who still adhered to humanocentric beliefs. Despite a decade of campaigning to have the Hutt removed from office, their protests fell on deaf ears. Disgusted with the Republic, Alon Varonus — whose ancestors had been of the Pius Dea faith — led a secession from the Core Worlds. Retreating to the Outer Rim Territories, Varonus and his followers settled on Tralon IV, establishing a city from the remains of the Pius Dea outpost.

The Great Houses
By 7990 BBY, a fully-developed society had been established on Tralon, ruled by the six Great Houses. These families — consisting of Houses Varonus, Sendor, Carran, Galarus, Valsas, and Talvron — were descended from the original settlers of Tralon and held great prestige over the rest of the planet's population. Over the course of the next few millennia, Tralon would establish a full-fledged Star Force that far surpassed the militias of most other Outer Rim worlds.

When the Pius Dea faith still ran strong through the people of Tralon, contact with the Republic was all but forbidden as decreed by First Founder Alon Varonus. However, by the second millennium, such views had faded from the general mindset, when many not even knowing why their ancestors had seceded from the Republic. As such, when the Republic rediscovered the Tralon system in 6697 BBY and made contact with Tralon IV, Count Taloc Sendor had no qualms in pledging loyalty to the Republic, even going so far as to shake hands with the plant-like Chancellor Luluwuul.
