Katrides

"The evil equivalent of Coruscant is sprawling with urban cities, with the rich living on the surface, and the slaves squabbling below."

- HoloNet dossier Katrides was an urban planet and the capital of the Slaver's Republic. A thriving ecumenopolis located in the Slave systems on the edge of the Outer Rim, Katrides was often referred to as Dark Coruscant due to its significance to the Galactic Republic capital of Coruscant. Katrides was also referred to as the Slave Pens or the Capital of Slavery.

As the center of the galactic slave trade, Katrides was a controversial, but also a financially powerful planet. It was the only planet in the Slave systems not ruled by an oligarchy, but instead directly by the Council of Katrides and the Upper Parliament, the legislative body of the Slaver's Republic.
