Rimma

Rimma was an astronomical object in the Core Worlds, situated on the super-hyperroute known as the Rimma Trade Route. The city of Recardeon was located on Rimma, as was a set of ancient ruins. Several scrolls discovered in the latter by 3637 BBY noted the existence of the artifacts known as the Three Great Works.

Four thousand years later, the jatz musician Fitz Roi was set to perform on Rimma. However, on the day before his concert, Roi caused an incident in the Crystal Room of the Teirra Parko establishment in which he fired his projectile pistols at various historical artifacts kept in the room, causing damage to the artwork on display. Local officials immediately expelled Roi from Rimma, and the millions of the musician's fans engaged in riots in Recardeon upon learning of the concert's cancellation.

Another instance of rioting on Rimma occurred at some point during the Galactic Civil War, when mobs of the residents of the Norsec shanty town entered the suburbs of Recardeon and looted the private residences located there. The Imperial governor of the Rimma system, Alyk Krysusten, subsequently issued a public declaration in which he claimed the mobs had been incited by Rebel Alliance provocateurs, further stating that the government would take strict security measures as a result of the disorders.
