Directors of the Trade Federation

The Directory, also known as the directors of the Trade Federation or Federation Directorate, formed the executive board of the Trade Federation, a powerful shipping and trade conglomerate. In the year 33 BBY, the then incumbent directors were all assassinated by the Nebula Front during the Eriadu Conference. That incident allowed a group of ambitious Neimoidians, led by Nute Gunray and Lott Dod, to step in as directors. Gunray took the office of Viceroy, and Dod that of Senator in the Galactic Republic's Senate. They were served by the Neimoidian Royal Guard.
