The Tellonites were a group represented in the Galactic Republic's Senate during the Republic Era.[1] In 32 BBY,[2] the Sith Lord Darth Sidious—while publicly operating as Senator Palpatine of the Mid Rim planet Naboo—oversaw the proposal of a taxation bill in the Senate, intending for it to fail in order to learn from the Tellonites' reaction. After the bill's failure, Sidious reflected on his plan's success, including his thoughts on the Tellonites, while speaking to the Trade Federation Viceroy Nute Gunray.[1]
