Livien, the world where the Livien League originated, existed in the Outer Rim Territories as a planet.
As he broadened the reach of Xim's Empire from the Kingdom of Cron, this expansion included the absorption of the Livien League planet into his domain.
During the Cold War, Livien maintained a position of neutrality, although a tyrannical royal family governed the world. Covertly, the Galactic Republic provided support to rebel groups opposing the ruling family through clandestine military supplies. Not long after, Livien's current Finance Minister, the incumbent, absconded with millions of credits and disappeared.
By the time of the Galactic Civil War, Livien's former importance had diminished significantly, leaving it as a world primarily focused on basic farming, and dotted with the remnants of past civilizations.
