• Affiliation: The Galactic Empire | The Trade Federation |:| 900 ABY
• Accessibility:

Located in the heart of the Financial District on Coruscant, the Germon-Sacks Financial Center is a prominent landmark. It is easily accessible via the main orbital traffic lanes and is situated directly on a major avenue lined with Imperial Banners. The building itself is heavily guarded with public access limited to the ground-floor exchange halls and a few designated tour areas.

• Description:

The Germon-Sacks Financial Center is a massive, broad pyramid, constructed from polished durasteel and streaked with vertical strips of grey. This wide base houses the main trading floors and public-facing facilities. From the center of this pyramid, a narrower, block-like tower rises hundreds of meters into the atmosphere, capped by a spire that pierces the smog.

The upper block is less ornate than the base, featuring a more utilitarian, brutalist design typical of Imperial architecture though has several landing pads to provide access for the Imperial Ruling Council. Banners of the Galactic Empire and major financial institutions line the avenue leading to the structure, emphasizing its importance as the financial hub of an ever-expanding empire.

POINTS OF INTEREST

​

The Grand Exchange Hall: Located on the lower floors of the pyramid, this cavernous hall is a whirlwind of activity. Holographic displays of market data fill the air, and traders from across the galaxy, both human and alien, furiously work at their terminals. A multi-story, circular screen in the center of the hall broadcasts a live feed of the Imperial Stock Exchange and the IMP500 Stock Exchange.

The Imperial Treasury: Situated on the highest floors of the central tower, the Imperial Treasury is a highly secure facility. It consists of a suite of offices, data vaults, and the main office of the Imperial Treasurer. The windows here offer a panoramic view of Coruscant, symbolizing the Treasurer's oversight of the Empire's vast economic interests.

The Executive Club: A private, exclusive club on one of the mid-levels of the tower, reserved for the wealthiest and most influential financial magnates and corporate executives. It features a lavish lounge, fine dining, and private conference rooms where multi-billion credit deals are quietly made.

The Imperial Archives: A restricted-access data vault located deep within the pyramid's foundations. It contains comprehensive records of the Empire's financial history, including tax records, corporate filings, and the personal wealth of trillions of Imperial citizens.

HISTORICAL INFORMATION

The Germon-Sacks Financial Center was built following the Battle of Coruscant, a significant time when the Galactic Empire, under Emperor Darth Solipsis , seized the Crown Jewel of the Core Worlds from the Galactic Alliance.

As the Alliance retreated from the core worlds after suffering heavy losses and being forced into a defensive position, the construction of the Center commenced at the explicit request of the Imperial Ruling Council, which recognized the necessity for a central financial hub to manage the extensive economic changes resulting from the war.

The Trade Federation, aiming to align itself with the Imperial Treasurer Aggadeen Myi , was granted the lucrative contract to design and enhance the structure for the Empire, removing any remnants of Alliance influence. Their proficiency in large-scale construction and financial infrastructure rendered them the optimal choice.

The primary objective of the new building was twofold: to establish a secure venue for the Imperial Treasurer to supervise the galactic economy, and to function as the headquarters for the significant endeavor of consolidating the various assets of the Galactic Alliance.

This process entailed auditing and confiscating assets, as well as reissuing all former Alliance currency under the new, unified Imperial monetary system, a strategy that effectively dismantled the economic autonomy of the Empire's vanquished adversaries and reinforced its financial dominance over the galaxy.
