| - Post ruusan reformation*, 700ish BBY Republuc sought to re-expand from the Core Worlds. To this end, they granted a conglomerate of corporations control over the outer expansion zone*. Kr'Tal was one such system infested with the corporations. Heavily mined of raw materials until all resources were drained. This caused strife for the settled Zeltrons and brought a large mix of immigrated species. The families of workers of the corporations. Anti-republic feelings borne.

The system that would come to be called the Kr'Tal system itself was infested with several mega-corporations shortly thereafter. Heavily mined of raw materials, large portions of the few rocky moons and planets ravaged. This often continued until resources were depleted.

In 567 BBY growing awareness that it was Corporate interference, manipulation, and authoritarian rule resulted in an alliance between immigrants and natives and after a brief war the Mega Corporations were forced from the planet.
