The sentient alien species known as Corthenians originated from the Corthenia system, located within the Mid Rim. During the year 21 BBY, one Corthenian was present at a hive ball alongside both a Human and a Wookiee; this event was a celebration for two Galactic Republic figures, specifically Barrister Doolb Snoil together with Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi.
