The Kathol Republic was a short-lived government in the Outer Rim Territories that existed from Year 6 Day 232 to Year 9 Day 64. The government situated in the far-flung Kathol Sector. Circa Year 9, the Kathol Republic merged with the Order of Krath to form a new theocratic polity known as the Krath Dynasty.

History

The origins of the Kathol Republic are labyrinthine. The government was created from the ashes of Outrider Trading, a notorious den of thieves once led by Keir Santage, the father of Teniel Djo. Outrider Trading was the spiritual successor of an earlier organization known as Sarin Incorporated created by Sarin Boda, Ann-Yael Antaria and Hobo Raff on Year 1 Day 197. Sarin Incorporated soon fell into disarray and those who remained behind — notably Bar Cochba and Dargon Yotam — decided to rebuild Sarin Incorporated under a new name. On Year 2 Day 129, they founded "Outrider Trading."

Several years after its creation, Outrider Trading was given to Keir Santage by Mystiel Raleigh. Santage transformed Outrider Trading into the first organized group of thieves who used the unofficial name of "Eidola." when Santage obtained Biotech Medical on Year 4 Day 322, Outrider Trading was sold to a new owner and eventually was transformed into the Kathol Republic.

When Auron Tamerin and Eliana Tamerin departed the Corporate Sector Authority and joined the Kathol Republic, the latter government quickly earned a reputation as a haven for thieves. Under the auspices of Auron and Eliana, the Kathol Republic ill-advisedly developed a firm rapport with the Galactic Empire, but this relationship was permanently severed when Moff Jake Kiltar attempted a failed hostile takeover of Kathol territories and assets.

On Year 9 Day 64, the Kathol Republic merged with the Krath to form a new government: The Krath Dynasty.

Description

Years before the collapse of the Old Republic, people began to foreshadow the crumbling of their democracy into a despotic sith regime. Groups of colonists and refugees began moving away from the centres of galactic politics and many were lead to the Outback of Kathol, a collection of 23 mostly uninhabited planets, which required vast amounts of work to make livable. The carving of a new life in the far reaches of the outer rim was tough and many systems created their own governments, religions and developed independent cultures. However, to ensure the defense of the member states, they formed an alliance, signed a mutual defence pact and placed the capitol on the Dayark moon. Times changed and alliances began to falter, the colonized systems began to slip off the galactic radar. Eventually, the Kathol Republic was not heard from in years, it had stopped participating in the galactic area. Soon, entire generations had gone by without word from the Outback and were forgotten or lost in the quagmire of the civil war. Yet, while the first Kathol Republic was eventually forgotten and rendered obsolete, a new Kathol Republic has emerged, emanating from the planet Kathol.

The wars of the galaxy have sent millions of people to the Kathol Sector seeking refuge from the Empire and Rebels. New industries were developed, jobs were created and trading between the Kathol systems grew. Two corporations led the new Kathol economic resurgence, the Kathol Mining Company and Drax Industries. These two companies have helped grow Kathol and the interdependent links between the systems have led to the commencement of the formation of a second Kathol Republic.

The Republic capital is located on the planet Kathol, located in the Kathol System.
