During its reign of the galaxy, the Galactic Empire conquered and brutally carried out an occupation of Kashyyyk, the homeworld of the Wookiees, who were enslaved and used as laborers. The occupation was resisted by the Wookiees with repeated uprisings, but resulted in vicious retaliation by the Empire.[7] A large Imperial force remained on Kashyyyk after the Battle of Endor, led by Grand Moff Lozen Tolruck. Tolruck had the local population subjugated by use of inhibitor chips and even hunted Wookiees for sport on top of imprisoning them in the repurposed prison ship Ashmead's Lock and using them for slave labor. The Empire's occupation of Kashyyyk was ultimately ended[4] in 5 ABY,[6] when it was liberated by the New Republic.[4]

- ↑ Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of "Brain Invaders," in which the second occupation of Geonosis starts, to 21 BBY. Dawn of Rebellion specifies that the Empire continued to hold its presence on Geonosis until the sterilization of Geonosis, which is dated to circa 9 BBY by Star Wars: Timelines.

- ↑ The Occupation of Kashyyyk began with the Pacification of Kashyyyk. The Pacification of Kashyyyk takes place when Cody is still with the Galactic Empire. Cody deserts the Empire in The Bad Batch Season 2 episode "The Solitary Clone," which can be dated to around 19 BBY per the reasoning here. Therefore, the Pacification of Kashyyyk occurred between the the rise of the Empire (19 BBY) and the events of "The Solitary Clone" (19 BBY), meaning it also takes place in 19 BBY.
