Coruscant
The governmental capital of the galaxy for generations, Coruscant and its two moons orbit far from a small white sun in the Core Worlds. Located in the system of the same name near the Kaikieliusand Metellos systems, Coruscant is known as the "Scintillant Planet" in old songs. For thousands of years, under the Old Republic regime, Coruscant main city was called Galactic City. When the Old Republic was replaced by the Galactic Empire, under the reign of Emperor Palpatine, the planet Coruscant changed his name to Imperial Center and Galactic City was renamed Imperial City forever. When the horrible faith happen to the Imperial Fleet at Endor, meaning the defeat of the Galactic Empire, the New Republic military has plan to recapture Coruscant. When Imperial Center was capture by New Republic fleet under Admiral Ackbar command, Imperial Center was renamed Coruscant once again but Imperial City didn't.
| Coruscant's coordinates are zero-zero-zero on all standard navigational charts, a clear sign of its long history and galaxy-spanning influence. The planet's entire landmass is covered by an enormous, multileveled city (now called Imperial City) whose foundations have been in place since the beginning of the Old Republic, over a thousand generations ago. The oldest and densest population centers border the equator. Kilometer-high skyscrapers and numerous spaceports cover Imperial City, and its sky is filled with the lights of arriving and departing air traffic. Kitelike hawk-bats make their homes in the artificial canyons, hunting granite slugs on the lower levels. The complex multileveled surface makes weather in Imperial City particularly difficult to predict. To the south of the city lie the snow-covered Manarai Mountains. The taller building on Imperial City is the Imperial Palace where the Emperor and his advisors rule the Empire. |  Imperial City deep levels, many people that live deep inside the greatest city in the galaxy had said that for centuries they never saw the day light. Because for centuries, the city had constructed new buildings on top of the others.
Imperial City covered with thousands of skyscrappers that reached the lower atmosphere. Imeprial City shows his architectural power and pride under the Galactic Empire. |
| The pyramidal Imperial Palace, formerly known as the Presidential Palace, is constructed of gray-green rock and sparkling crystals, and is taller than all other structures on the planet including the neighboring Senate building. The Palace is said to be an impregnable fortress and is decorated with hanging gardens, marble pyramids, and crystal roofs, while some areas were decorated by the Emperor with patterns based on ancient Sith hieroglyphics. The Palace contains the Grand Corridor, which links the Council chamber with the assemblage auditorium, and which has a cross hallway lined with suites (including Leia Organa Solo's office) that leads to the Inner Council meeting room. The Grand Corridor, personally designed by Emperor Palpatine, features a high ceiling and cutglass windows, and is lined with greenish-purple, vibration-sensitive ch'hala trees (revealed to be part of an elaborate surveillance system). Above the Grand Corridor are cafes situated on promenade balconies, where diners can watch the busy foot traffic below. All residential floors in the Palace contain extensive libraries, and the old-fashioned President's Guests floor is done in hand-carved Fijisi wood. The building also contains a set of turbolifts in the rear and several hidden entrances, installed by Palpatine when he took control. Some residential areas are found in the section of the Palace known as the Tower, located on the edge of the building with windows overlooking the city. The personal quarters for the Chief of State are located deep within the Palace's core, and its "windows" are actually holographic screens showing panoramic views taken by outside cameras. The Emperor's throne room is a vast sunken auditorium crowned with a prismatic skylight, and the Emperor also kept a personal observation deck within the Palace's tallest spire. For public celebrations and speeches, Palpatine would sometimes appear on the Palatial Balcony. The lower floor of the Palace is entirely dedicated to military operations, and contains the offices of admirals Ackbar and Drayson and a blast-shielded war room in its center. Adjacent to the war room is the Crypt, a computer slicing and decoding center. The Palace's command floor contains offices for Sector Ordnance/Supply and Starfighter Command. One wing of the Palace is a medical area, while another has been specially modified to accommodate the water-loving Mon Calamari. The structures in this humid wing are designed to resemble a coral reef, and an enclosed pool containing protoplasmic glurpfish and other sealife circulates around the rooms. Other areas of the vast Palace include treasuries, pavilions, prisons, music rooms, cafes, and summer and winter quarters, and decks jutting out from its sides hold tourism information centers. The Imperial Information Center, an exhaustive storehouse of data, is located beneath the Palace. |  The Grand Corridor, where many political conversations was being held by bureaucrats took place there. It is a beautiful sight has the Emperor had taste for arts and architecture.
Imperial Palace, the tallest skyscrapper on Imperial City was designed by the Emperor himself. It is where the Empire was being controlled and than later the siege of government to the New Republic. Even now, New Republic never found all the secrets areas of the awesome Imperial Palace. |
| Other attractions on Coruscant include the Grand Towers, the Skydome Botanical Gardens, the one-kilometer long Grand Reception Hall, the underground city of Dometown, the Grandis Mon theater, the Holographic Zoo of Extinct Animals, the Galactic Museum (which held ancient Sith artifacts four thousand years ago), the University of Coruscant, the Candreal Gardens Center, the Imperial Security Operations Building, and the Temple of the Circle. Celebrations and festivals included Carnival Week and New Year Fete Week, when Palpatine was known to hold public executions of his enemies. The traditional Imperial Fair, involving parades and exhibits, was held in the i Pliada di am Imperium . During the Coruscant's ancient War Day celebration, laser cannons were fired off in ceremonial salute. Monument Plaza is a popular mall built around one of the peaks in the Manarai mountain range, where visitors can actually touch bare rock. For the last three hundred years the clock in the Central Gathering Hall has marked the hour by spreading a light across the sky, and every evening spectacular gray-green and red auroras flash throughout Coruscant's atmosphere. An Imperial interrogation facility was located deep within a shielded, reinforced section of one of Coruscant's many towers. |  Imperial City main Entertaining Center was a place where the citizens of Imperial Center and of the Empire was proud to go and to have the greatest fun of their time! |
| The lowest, darkest levels of Imperial City were
abandoned long ago and are now home to discarded
equipment, wrecked starships, mosses and lichens,
spider-roaches and armored rats, duracrete worms and
shadow-barnacles, wild gangs such as the Lost Ones, and
nameless subhumans moving through the shadows. Due to the
danger, the lowest forty or fifty levels are typically
restricted from normal traffic. Many feral animal species
(having escaped from former confinement) inhabit these
levels, including the eyeless creatures called
"corridor ghouls." A seedy tavern in this area
is said to have not seen the sun in 90,000 years. The snow-covered polar regions of Coruscant are home to turbo-ski resorts, and are continuously mined by ice-boring machines. Since the planet's inland seas and oceans have long since been drained, the melted ice is delivered by huge pipelines to the densely-populated metropolitan areas. The space surrounding Coruscant is defended by Golan III orbital battle stations and a low-orbit space-dock facility, while a powerful energy shield protects the planet itself. During the reign of the Empire, Coruscant was protected by a sophisticated double layer of energy fields-- arriving ships would pass through the outer shield, which would then close behind them before the inner shield could be opened. Many other spaceyards help build starships and gigantic habitation spheres, while kilometers-wide orbiting mirrors focus reflected sunlight onto Coruscant's northern and southern latitudes, raising the temperature slightly to make the cold regions more habitable. Certain raw materials are mined from a belt of asteroids located on the fringes of the Coruscant system. |
 Imperial city dark places where you could find any creature that nobody thought they ever existed or lived. It is a place where many political people refuged to protect themselve against the wrath of the Emperor.
As Coruscant can't maintain itself to produce good and other goods by importing, though the planet manage to give water to the citizens by melting the ice from the Manarai Mountains.
Imperial Center (Coruscant) has been very over-populated, the Empire had decide to construct space stations to accomodate the life in Imperial Center. Though many of these stations were destroyed during the Imperial Civil War where the goal was to control the dead Empire.
Even though the greatest Imperial shipyards of the Empire are in the Kuat Star System, Fondor Star System and Lianna Star System under Kuat Drive Yards company, the Empire unlimited resources had no limit to extinguish the growing rebellion by constructing Imperial Star Destroyers. |
