    • After their mission to Naboo failed, Jedi Knights Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi returned to Coruscant with Queen Amidala and Jar Jar Binks – as well as Anakin Skywalker, liberated from slavery on Tatooine and now getting his first look at the capital of the Republic.
    • On a platform surrounded by Coruscant’s endless skyscrapers and ceaseless whirl of traffic, Chancellor Valorum welcomed the Jedi and expressed his relief that Amidala had escaped the Trade Federation’s blockade of Naboo.
    • Amidala addressed the Senate from the pod of Naboo’s Senator Palpatine. But her entreaties for an end to the Trade Federation blockade were met by bureaucratic maneuvering, leaving the queen to despair that the Naboo would continue to suffer and die while Senate committees bickered and produced useless reports.
    • At Palpatine’s suggestion, Amidala moved that the Senate take up a vote of “no confidence” in Valorum, paving the way for the election of a new chancellor. Though Amidala had no way of knowing it, she had set fateful events in motion that would change the course of galactic history: Palpatine would soon be elected as Valorum’s successor.
    • Meanwhile, Qui-Gon met with the Jedi Council atop the ancient Jedi Temple. He warned the council that the Sith had returned and asked to take Anakin as his new Padawan, explaining that he believed the boy to be the Chosen One foretold by ancient prophecy. The Jedi refused his request, saying Anakin was too old to be trained, though they reconsidered after Qui-Gon’s death on Naboo.
    • Ten years after the Battle of Naboo, the Republic found itself facing a grave crisis, with thousands of star systems planning to leave the Republic and join Count Dooku’s Separatist movement. Padmé Amidala – now Naboo’s senator – traveled to Coruscant to oppose the creation of an army for the Republic. But after her starship landed, a bomb ripped the graceful ship apart.
    • Amidala survived – she had been traveling aboard an escort starfighter escort – and met with Chancellor Palpatine and the Jedi to discuss the assassination attempt. She rejected the Jedi’s belief that Naboo spice miners were the culprits, blaming Dooku instead. At Palpatine’s request, she accepted protection from two Jedi bodyguards – her old friends Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker.
    • After an assassin droid tried to kill Padmé in her apartment, Obi-Wan leapt through the window and grabbed onto the flying droid. Anakin chased after his master in a borrowed airspeeder, rescuing Obi-Wan and then pursuing the shapeshifter Zam Wesell through Coruscant’s skies.
    • The Jedi captured Zam in the seedy Outlander Club, but a mysterious figure shot her with a poison dart before she could reveal who had hired her to kill Amidala. Obi-Wan took the dart as evidence, hoping it would lead him to Zam’s killer.
    • Obi-Wan’s investigation proved perplexing. The Jedi Temple could not identify the dart, but Obi-Wan’s old friend Dexter Jettster knew it was a Kaminoan saberdart. To Obi-Wan’s surprise, the Jedi Archives had no record of a planet at Kamino’s coordinates. Yoda and the younglings helped him understand what had happened: Someone had erased the planet from the Jedi Archives.
    • Obi-Wan’s investigation would lead him to Kamino, where he discovered a massive army of clones had been created in secret for the Republic. With the Separatist threat growing, Naboo Representative Jar Jar Binks proposed giving emergency powers to Chancellor Palpatine. That allowed Palpatine to use the mysterious clone army for the Republic, and ensured that the galaxy would soon be engulfed in war.
    • After the Clone Wars began with the Battle of Geonosis, Separatist leader Count Dooku fled to a rundown industrial area on Coruscant. There, he met with his secret master, the Sith Lord Darth Sidious. Everything was proceeding according to the Sith’s designs.
