Corporate Sector Authority

First formed in 490 BBY the Corporate sector was meant to resolve differences between many of the galaxies megacorporations and Coruscant. Though only containing a handful of systems thought to have no intelligent life at the very beginning over the centuries it had grown to over 30,000 by the time of the declaration of the new order. through shred political maneuvering and having financial lobbyist in the ears of Palpatine the Corporate sector was born in 22 bby shortly after the declaration of a new order. Acquiring numerous older vessels from the empire to form its picket fleet the CSA has a capable though aging defense fleet.

Since the birth of the Empire, they had kept an adviser to make sure the Authority was keeping up with its tithe in materials and ore as well as the 3% of its GDP it was required to give in exchange for it to be left to its affairs. Despite the agreement that didn't stop some of the companies within the Authority from selling to the rebellion as Galactic Electronics had sold an EM warhead to the Alliance resulting in its research facility occupation by the Imperials that increased tension between the Authority and the Empire as the Drex board didn't appreciate the Imperials sending forces into its territory. and now that the Emperor has died at Endor the CSA looks to openly stay neutral and sell to both sides at its own peril and maybe reopen old wounds with the Hutts.
