Arrochar was a planet on the edges of Hutt Space, located near Mon Calamari and ruled by a traditional monarchy. For long time it remained away from the central politics in the Galaxy, being a recluse planet, as the inhabitants would say, private. Around the time of the Battle of Yavin, the royalty of the planet was eager to enter a "Community of Planets" and saw the Rebellion as a way to fulfill its desires, so, in the first year after the battle, the crown prince of Arrochar offered asylum to the Rebel Alliance, in exchange for Princess Leia Organa's hand in marriage.
