Coridan Republic
(Redirected from People’s Republic of Coridan)

Founded nearly a millennium ago upon achieving warp flight, the democratic Coridan Republic governed a rocky, cool world in the Chi 1 Orionis system.[1]
The blue-blooded Coridanite population is largely concentrated along the equator, where severe wealth disparities and sprawling shantytowns frequently spark civil unrest. Relying heavily on foreign defense treaties, Coridan serves as a critical industrial hub; its seemingly limitless dilithium deposits, asteroid mining operations, and major shipyards make it a vital economic partner to neighboring Orion and Vulcan.[1]
By 2267, the People’s Republic of Coridan were the governing authority of Coridan III].[2]

- Early March 2155: To intervene with the Coridanites' apparent intent to form closer ties with the Humans, Vulcans, and other species, the Romulans devastate the planetary surface (and a great deal of natural resources) in a suicide attack by starship at high warp speed.[4]
