Kashyyyk, also known as Planet Wookiee C to some humans in the Core Worlds, was a wroshyr tree-covered forestplanet located in the southwestern quadrant of the galaxy and the homeworld of the Wookieespecies. Four millennia before the Battle of Yavin, Kashyyyk was discovered by the Czerka Corporation, who enslaved the Wookiee population and renamed the planet G5-623, later to Edean. During the Clone Wars, Kashyyyk was a member of the Galactic Republic, and endured enslavement under the Galactic Empire, the Republic's successor. Later, during the rise of the New Republic, Kashyyyk was liberated with the help of Republic forces led by Han Solo and Chewbacca.
