    Taken in perspective, 200,000 years of a violent chaotic history with empires rising and falling, countless wars and one golden age collapsing after another, the Star Wars saga we have been following over the last 46 years at best amounts to a parable on nihilism.

      ....What? No. For a franchise called Star Wars, there is frankly shockingly little actual galactic-scale war, and what there is tends to be either over quickly or in relatively short spurts of activity (I.E., the roughly 70-80 year period from the prequels to the Fate of the Jedi novels). As the literal first line ever in the entire franchise says, from the Adventures of Luke Skywalker (I.E., the ANH novelization, released before), the Republic stood like a tree, immune to outside assault.

    In his early drafts for Star Wars, George Lucas was going to make Alderaan a planet scale city and the capital planet of the galaxy. However by the forth draft of his story, Alderaan was changed into a peaceful planet and became Leia Organa's homeworld, and was blown up by the Death Star. Meanwhile the name of the Empire's capital planet didn't come up again until early drafts of Return of the Jedi, and it was going to be called "Had Abaddon". However Lucas and his team realized they didn't have time to shoot any scenes with Had Abaddon in mind, and so it was written out of the final script. Despite everyone's belief, Coruscant wasn't first mentioned in The Phantom Menace but in Timothy Zahn's Thrawn Trilogy, starting with Heir to the Empire, which was released in 1991, eight years before The Phantom Menace was released in theaters.

  • @ericvulgate

    That much construction piled on a planet would be enough to throw off it's gravity.
    And a world city with five thousand levels would hold something like ten trillion people if it were as crowded as portrayed.
    Also- 'drain the ocean' where, exactly?
    Into space?
    Like most starwars coruscant is neat ideas realized poorly.

    I’ve always wondered about random Coruscant details… like, where on the planet exactly is the capital and surrounding city located? Is it near the equator, or somewhere temperate? How many “continents”, or “metropolises” are there? And are different regions of the city split into zones, “countries,” “counties”, or sections? I know it’s a planetwide city, but of course, there must be some variation from cities at the South Pole versus the North Pole, stuff like that. I wonder if it’s colder there, despite their artificial atmosphere and weather regulation… maybe it’s just planetwide the same weather conditions… And I’m curious about the “other” places… the “wastelands”, factories, processing plants and warehouses, outside of and between the metropolis areas.

    You know something, personally I think Coruscant is an issue within itself, (economically speaking) as it must take huge resources to maintain alone, since the amount of levels, the needed maintenance must be HUGE, and the costs of upkeep and such must also be very large, if we look at the dune series (my knowledge in Dune based on my friends convo's and too many videos on explaining how to make world building feasible), how people may have been at least partially responsible for the water crisis as they pit stopped to take the worm dust, then the opposite is true, most of the republic's resources most likely ended up agglomerating inn certain planets, among them most likely primordially Coruscant
    I just want to say, have any of you seen ascendance of a bookworm? You know the part that the royal family of the Jorgenshmit ? was NOT sending energy to the country foundation, but instead just wasting pushing a ton of energy to the capital duchy (which was created without it really needing to exist), and that capital duchy being a lot bigger than it should have been? Aka, even post Myne finding the country foundation, if the royal family did NOT in fact attempt to get rid of the capital, the energy outage would be HUGE. Or rather, if anyone randomly found the actual foundation, without the gutrisheit? then the royal family would still be in the big trouble, if not MORE, at their lack of ability to maintain the place where their castle is at, AND the country itself.
    This can be applied to Star Wars conversely.

      Seeing how the cityscape of Coruscant is generally heavily implied if not outright stated to go down to almost the core (you could, frankly, make a convincing argument its more of a planet-sized space station than anything else), the number of layers would be somewhere between 'a fucking lot' and 'a FUCKING LOT'. Although of course, the further you go down, the more unpleasant it becomes, and generally unlivable.
