In 3653 BBY, the Galactic Senate of the Republic convened to elect a new Supreme Chancellor to lead the democratic government. After the assassination of the previous Chancellor during an assault on the planet of Coruscant perpetrated by the Sith Empire, Cerean Senator Paran Am-Ris took control of Senate activities for an interim period. When the time came to elect the Chancellor formally, the Senate voted unanimously to install Senator Dorian Janarus of Coruscant, in recognition of his strong leadership of the planet in the crisis's aftermath.
