Template:Year 90,000 Before the Battle of Yavin, also known as 56,547 Before the Tho Yor Arrival or 86,347 Before the Treaty of Coruscant, was a year during the Pre-Republic era. Approximately this year, on the planet of Coruscant, Galactic City stood as a many tiered settlement.[1] This was the groundwork for the 5,127 levels,[2] which stretched kilometers from the surface,[3] that would exist by the time of the Clone Wars.[2]

Proem[edit | edit source]

By 90,000 BBY, the planet of Coruscant was covered by a cityscape, later known as Galactic City, that had begun to build upwards, layer upon layer.[1]

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]

The year 90,000 BBY was mentioned in The Essential Atlas (2009).[1] Coruscant had been established as having many levels of architecture for years before this release, as stated in Dark Apprentice (1994) by Kevin J. Anderson,[3] and some of these levels were stated in The Courtship of Princess Leia—written by Dave Wolverton and published in 1994—to be more than ninety thousand years old[4] by the year 8 ABY.[5]

The structure of Coruscant was planned to be changed with the release of the video game Star Wars: 1313, which would have extended the planet's stucture to several thousand levels, numbered from the planet's core.[6] The story would have been set five to ten years before the Battle of Yavin,[7] or approximately twenty years before Dark Apprentice, contradicting the preexisting figure of several hundred stories that existed at the later date.[3] With the closure of LucasArts by its owner, The Walt Disney Company, and the cancellation of that game in April 2013, this idea was not adopted because of it.[8] Instead, while Star Wars: 1313 was still in production, a 2013 episode of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television show, "To Catch a Jedi," was created to tie in obliquely to the game by including levels from 1312 to 1315. A trivia slideshow on StarWars.com that accompanied the episode established the new canonical number of levels to Coruscant, increased from Dark Apprentice.[2]
