- "The Tagges are a threat to the galaxy—They supply the Empire with ships and weapons, strip planets of their resources, and exploit their workers until their bodies give out. There are generations of blood on their hands."
- ―Margo
The House of Tagge,[7] also known as the Tagge dynasty,[8] or the Tagge Family,[9] was a noble and wealthy human family.[1] They owned the Tagge Corporation company, which had mining facilities on Lucazec[5] and at least one subsidiary, Galacti-Stok.[10] According to Chelli Aphra, the Tagges even owned entire planets.[11] The House of Tagge ruled a region of the galaxy known as Tagge Space.[3]
One of the family's notable scions was Cassio Tagge,[5] from Tepasi,[2] an officer of the Galactic Empire who was elevated to the rank of Grand General and placed in charge of the entire Imperial Military after the Battle of Yavin.[12] According to Rebel Commander-in-Chief Mon Mothma, anyone who traveled among the Coruscant elite was well acquainted with the Tagge family.[13] The family shared their name with Finmos Tagge who served as Father of Chemicals in Coronet City on Corellia during the High Republic Era,[14] and Aurelia Tagge who owned the Nau'ur-class yacht Scarlet Dominion.[15]
