Chrona, a planet, experienced the Trade Federation's oppressive measures aimed at halting the cultivation of superior crops. These genetically engineered crops, crafted by the Leonis family, were intended to bolster the well-being of the planet's inhabitants. The Trade Federation meddled in the crop production, concerned that their investments in medical services would suffer due to the improved health of the populace. Despite the resolution of this conflict within the Republic's legal system, the Galactic Empire falsely claimed responsibility for expelling the Federation and enabling the planet's subsequent prosperity.
