If it seems the Republic is pressuring the planet into the Financial reform, it could make them reel to the Confederacy. I hope I have read the right things... This mass of disturbances does not bode well. Half the Republic is against it. And if the envoy has been captured or are being held it is our job to go in and smooth things out, am I right?
Actually, this planet is meant to be an actual EU one but I am buggered if I can remember or find which one it is, so it will just have to be a very similar one...
(Its name may suddenly change later)
It's a very watery world, with much of its civilisation built on what amounts to great wooden islands built atop the water; it is not a very hi-tech planet and is mostly home to manual workers who have a very strong union ethic. They have voiced discontent with Coruscant and the Republic for a long time.
Information is now arriving that one of the union leaders has declared that the Senators are being kept as hostages until they hear that the FRA has been passed.
