Kachirho/Legends

Kachirho was a coastal Wookiee city on Kashyyyk that became the site of the Battle of Kashyyyk during the Clone Wars.

Characteristics
Kachirho was located on the Wawaatt Archipelago.

The city spiraled around the trunk of a 984-foot high wroshyr tree that sat in front of a large blue fresh-water lagoon. At the gates of the tree city, a carved archway read in Wookiee script -- Come in peace to our Home Tree Vikkilynn.

History
The leader of the city at the time of the Clone Wars was the Wookiee Tarfful, who had served for over a Human lifetime, roughly 100 years. The Claatuvac Guild was also based here.

In 19 BBY, the Delta Squad of Republic commandos was inserted to beat back a large scale CIS assault on the bridge.

It was chosen as the landing spot for the Separatists due to its wide open land areas, as opposed to many other cities on the planet, covered by thick foliage. When the alarm was sounded that the city would be attacked, thousands from other cities came via land and sea to Kachirho to protect it.

A few months later, when a group of six Jedi who had escaped Order 66, led by Olee Starstone, came to Kashyyyk, looking for any of the three Jedi that had been there when Order 66 had been issued. Tarfful fought against the Imperials when they invaded Kashyyyk but he was rounded up by the Empire and became a slave, destined to help build the Death Star.

During the Galactic Civil War, Kachirho was the only city on Kashyyyk that had a starport, due to the controlling Imperial forces.
