Alaris Prime is a rather small, forested moon colonized by the Wookiee race. This venture was aided by Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn. Introduced in the real-time-strategy game Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds, the moon was the site of the war between the Wookiees and the Trade Federation, known as the Battle for Alaris Prime. The Trade Federation's greed for natural resources was aided by the Trandoshans' greed for Wookiee skins. Eventually, the Wookiees triumphed over the small battalion of battle droids that was dispatched to Alaris. Alaris Prime later was the site of the Force Harvester weapon used in the Clone Wars, and the production site of the Galactic Republic's Decimator, an incredible weapon of war that was also used during the Clone Wars.

Famous quotes containing the word prime:
“If Montaigne is a man in the prime of life sitting in his study on a warm morning and putting down the sum of his experience in his rich, sinewy prose, then Pascal is that same man lying awake in the small hours of the night when death seems very close and every thought is heightened by the apprehension that it may be his last.”
—Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)
