The Corporate Sector was established in a far-flung and minimally explored corner of the galaxy. The Sector encompasses several hundred systems, most of them devoid of sapient life. Companies came in and bought up whole systems of space to develop as they saw fit. Lack of competition led to an era of unparalleled profits and industrial development. Some groups and individuals had grand visions of the future of the galactic economy. These individuals joined to form the innocuously named Galactic Corporate Policy League. Few suspected it was, in fact, a cabal of plutocrats with ties to Palpatine and his New Order.
Not content with the vast trillions in wealth they had gained legally,
or the uncountable sums netted in their shadier dealings, they hungered for
more. They resented prohibitions against slavery, world-gouge mining and
other "altruistic idiocies". They longed for a free hand in the outer
fringes, where less advanced worlds and civilizations couldn't stand
against the might of greed. They found a new ally in Palpatine.
