- "Republic SIS raided an Imperial Intelligence base on Nar Shaddaa. This information was among dozens of classified data files they recovered."
- ―Leeha Narezz
Imperial Intelligence, the intelligence service of the reconstituted Sith Empire, maintained a base on the moon of Nar Shaddaa during the Cold War between the Empire and the Galactic Republic.[1] However, around 3642 BBY,[2] the Republic Strategic Information Service—Imperial Intelligence's Republic counterpart—raided the base, recovering dozens of classified data files. Among the data recovered was a report on a scientist who had upgraded the defenses of the Sith Emperor's space station, and the Jedi Knight Leeha Narezz used that data in her covert assignment to locate the scientist's lost shuttle where it had crashed on the planet Hoth two decades earlier.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Imperial Intelligence base was first mentioned in the mission "Suicide Squads" for the Jedi Knight class in Star Wars: The Old Republic, a video game released by BioWare in 2011.[1]

STAR WARS: The Old Republic - Question ! :) - Page 3 on The Old Republic's official website (backup link) places Star Wars: The Old Republic about ten to twelve years after the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, which is dated to 3653 BBY by Star Wars: The Old Republic Encyclopedia. The Old Republic—The Lost Suns 2 takes place ten years after the treaty, one week after the mission to Nar Shaddaa, and around the time of the SpecForce Incident. Since the mission and the incident are respectively part of Act I of the Jedi Knight and Republic Trooper's storylines, and the Trooper's Act I occurs concurrent to Act I of the Smuggler storyline, the general events of Act I for all classes can be assumed to occur in 3643 BBY.
The Prologue for each class immediately precedes Act I, and The Old Republic Encyclopedia places the Battle of Ilum at the end of Act III in 3640 BBY. Assuming that in-universe chronology of the Star Wars: The Old Republic events roughly aligns with the release of story content in real-life as with
Forums: Dear Story Team, What Year Are We Currently In? on The Old Republic's official website (backup link), the Act III Epilogue must take place near the end of 3640 BBY since it was the chronologically latest story of the The Old Republic base game, which was released toward the end of 2011. Therefore, assuming that The Old Republic takes place over the course of three years per the former of the two aforementioned swtor.com posts, Act I takes place near the end of 3643 BBY.
