    Imagine a game where you play an upper level detective on a criminal investigation that leads you lower and lower towards ground level of Coruscant. No jedi space wizards or something, but perhaps some augmentation or a 'failed' clone turned police man to give that slight edge. It starts of pleasant up on the surface and the few lower levels but slowly becomes madness as you go lower and lower.

Imagine plague doctors embarking on quests to stop the lattest galactic outbreak, perhaps finding some old force artifact along the way or finding out that a dısturbance ın the force caused it and teaming up wıth the jedi to solve it.

    Classic case of over-population and the issues that come with it. The best solution here for everyone would be a hard re-location program where the lower levels were forcefully depopulated and the moved peoples relocated to any colony or settlement the government could muster - anything really, would be better than rotting away in the lowest levels. Imagine being born in that place and being in a gang solely to survive - if your entire gang, the whole district in fact- got rounded up and relocated to some remote colony-world that Coruscant's government had founded. Even if your just a lowly worker there, you would have a wage, fresh air, a total lack of crime (at least initially) and an open sky above you to enjoy. Some would be resentful, but tbh the majority would be EXTREMELY grateful. Hell, this could be a way for the Empire to earn massive PR wins in the eyes of the public, just make a documented case for how shit life really is down here and how the empire don't blame the criminal gangs for what happened, as it was the Republic's fault and had been for THOUSANDS OF YEARS. Then you document their relocation, pardon for their crimes so far, they swear to uphold Honorable and productive lives, and you put them and everyone they know on a new colony-world somewhere to grow the empire and provide for it's citizens. There is little to nothing that can go wrong with this, you would even get a LOAD of willing recruits for your stormtrooper program this way, people perfectly happy to have been saved from a completely shitty life by the empire.

Most planets are underpopulated. And I'm not talking about Tatooine or something like that - Alderaan has a population of 2 billion! This is laughable. Not to mention that with the usage of space habitats, only one star system alone would be able to host trillions of people - but it's Star Wars we're talking about, and most of the population lives on one-climate planets.

    • @mikedeck8381
      @mikedeck8381 5 років тому +3

      See I thought that the Republic/Empire more or less exploited most of the worlds except for inner core worlds. They extracted the resources they wanted at the lowest cost possible then they just moved on when they were done and left the inhabitants to fend for themselves. If the inhabitants complained they got hit so hard they would never do it again. The lower levels of Coruscant were probably better than the outer rim and mid rim worlds if you were poor. The government could never completely ignore the lower levels. With Star Wars tech a few million people could pretty much farm an entire world. Using sentient beings as labor was an option not a necessity.
      A planet like Alderaan was an exception. It was a well managed planet, with little corruption, that ran the planet for the benefit of its inhabitants, most of whom spent their time pursuing artistic goals, that protected them from the rapacious behavior of the Republic/Empire. Alderaan wanted a population of about 2 billion, it allowed them to maintain their culture but also protected the natural condition of their planet. Immigrating there was almost impossible unless you were very wealthy. They were elitists, the Galactic equivalent of a gated community. Trillions lived in poverty so they could have their privileged existence. Then Palpatine came along and in his infinite wisdom murdered them all like the dogs they were, lol. Seriously though, Alderaan might have had sympathy for the lower level denizens but they were not having it on their world, neither were a lot of other worlds going to put up with it nor did they have the infrastructure for it. Only a few worlds like Coruscant were set up for this. Relocating these beings to other worlds, where they were not wanted or needed would have been a death sentence. Also most of them were not human, they were not fit to be storm troopers, nor did the Republic care for them. The Empire was openly hostile to non humans, escaping notice on Coruscant, even the lower levels was maybe preferable.

      @Tactical Bacon two things 1 is don't like your own comment 2 is if they cut immigration they wouldn't need a lot of social welfare.

    • @tacticaldroidtx22
      @tacticaldroidtx22 5 років тому

      @Tactical Bacon And 3, welfare programs are shown to create welfare dependence and degenerate the community which uses them.

      @Tactical Bacon yes we have social welfare but immigration increased the problems 10 fold

    So basically lower coruscant is a bit like south side Chicago or Detroit. Also it’s so depressing that the Jedi thought everyone was safe yet there were millions maybe billions below their feet suffering. When a city doesn’t take care of itself and only cares about their city stuff like this happens. The city becomes too dangerous for people to live. Also I have a feeling the underworld police were terrible cops.

    So basically coruscant is a Cyberpunk hellscape.
    Capitalism in a type 3 civilization, no wonder they were vulnerable to falling into fascism.

    They should make an entire live action series on the lives of the ordinary people of coruscant. Just that one planet itself is an entire universe in its own right and I’m sure many fascinating stories could come of such a series.
    I mean each level of the planet is like it’s own planet all together. It’s sad how even the most remote planets in the Star Wars galaxy get more representation in the senate than do the lower levels of the capital planet itself.

      It was an earth-like planet. Had 2 races on it. Basically, the soon to be human race won the war and drove the other one off-world. That other race became the Mandalorians

      Ahsoka trail shows us how people even Corusant didn't even know about the Jedi order. They was easily forgotten for a reason.
