- "If it has an engine or motor, expect a Corellian to see how fast it can go — and another Corellian to try and make it go faster."
- ―The Galactic Explorer's Guide
Corellians were humans native to the planet Corellia,[1] a temperate Core World of forests, jungles, and industrial urban environments. The world and its natives were known for their shipbuilding,[6] with the Corellian Engineering Corporation[7] producing starships ranging from freighters such as the YT-1300[8] to cruisers like the Consular-class utilized by the Galactic Republic.[9] Many notable Corellians were also famed among the galaxy's greatest pilots; Corellia's luminaries included Han Solo and Wedge Antilles.[6]
Corellians became notable throughout the galaxy for their wanderlust, only for the planet to lose its importance to the wider galaxy[6] as younger planets took its power.[10] Many Corellians had begun to show ideals based upon isolationism during the High Republic Era, only for those opinions to be parodied in the song Corellia for Corellians.[11]
