The Senate District – alternatively known as the Legislative District, Government District, or Government Center – existed on Coruscant along the planet's equatorial line, effectively serving as the capital within Galactic City.
Adjacent to the Financial and Sah'c Districts, the Senate District was situated near the industrial zone referred to as The Works. A significant number of structures in the district's higher tiers showcased the New Architecture design. The Senate Building, housing the Grand Convocation Chamber, stood as the district's focal point and had been the core of numerous galactic administrations since 25,000 BBY.
During the Yuuzhan Vong's transformation of Coruscant into Yuuzhan'tar, the district was renamed the Sacred Precinct.
Subsequently, the Reconstruction Authority provided assistance in the region's recovery after the conflict.
