Esselian conglomerate

The Esselian Cassander Tadrin owned a conglomerate a century before the fall of the Galactic Republic. He sold the conglomerate's holdings to fund a colonization effort in the New Territories, transplanting himself and tens of thousands of loyal employees and their families to newly-discovered planets that would become known as the Cassandran Worlds.
