Corlax 4

Corlax 4, the primary world in the Corlax system, was noted for its abundance of natural resources. During the height of the Clone Wars, nearly 300 million men, women, and children lived on the planet, most of them working as miners or other laborers. The planet was one of thousands that joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems, and it became a prize among Separatist holdings because of its ability to produce the raw materials needed by the Separatist war machines. This, of course, brought the planet to the attention of the Supreme Chancellor, who ordered Jedi Master Darrus Jeht to eliminate the Separatist facilities on the planet. Jeht questioned the unorthodox nature of the mission, as the order came directly from Chancellor Palpatine's office. He also questioned the need to exterminate the population of the planet, but he agreed with its intent because he had seen Palpatine be correct in his assumption more often than not.
