Legend

this interplanetary transportation corporation was contracted by the New Republic's Senate Select Committee for Refugees to deliver supplies to the refugee domes on the planet Duro, during the Yuuzhan Vong's invasion of the galaxy. Their headquarters were located on Duggan Station. It was later discovered that they were diverting shipments to the orbital cities instead of delivering them to the refugees, as part of a plan formed by the Duros High House which allowed the Vong to have the planet Duro in return for the freedom of one orbital city. CorDuro had been working to divert supplies to Bburru, and had been bribed by the Peace Brigade to sway the voting in the Duros High House. CorDuro had hoped to obtain advance warning of a Yuuzhan Vong attack on Duro from the Peace Brigade, which would allow them to escape the battle with one of the planet's orbital cities intact. As the plans moved forward, CorDuro moved from conspirator to collaborator, and agreed to help ship any captured refugees to Yuuzhan Vong detention camps.
