Refugee/Legends

Refugee was the status given to any individual who was forced to flee their home or native land due to disaster or conflict such as war or genocide. Massive refugee populations were the often result of pan-galactic wars, including the Mandalorian Wars, the Jedi Civil War, the Great Galactic War, and the Clone Wars. While many refugees elected to simply move to a less dangerous region of their homeworld, as seen on Ord Mantell during the Cold War, many others were forced to flee their planets altogether. Such mass exoduses were seen during the Mandalorian Wars, when the surface of Serocco was blasted into glass craters by Mandalorian nuclear warheads. On worlds that were common hosts to refugee populations, specific regions became dedicated to their housing and shelter. The Refugee Sector on Nar Shaddaa served this purpose, as did the Old Galactic Market and Underworld on Coruscant. During the final decades of the Galactic Republic's reign, the Refugee Relief Movement operated with the intent to aid refugees fleeing from violence or coping with disaster.
