Wookiee World
May 27, 2005

An arboreal world teeming with robust, aggressive lifeforms, Kashyyyk's wilderness has barely been tamed by the native Wookiees.

The planet is a gateway to several major astrogational routes, making it of prime strategic importance to whoever controls the system.

The Republic bolstered the native armies with their clone troopers, led by one of their most powerful Jedi warriors, Yoda.
