The main governing body of Ralltiir was the Ralltiiri High Council. However, this council was dissolved by the Galactic Empire during the initial period of the Galactic Civil War, an action spearheaded by Lord Tion. Following this dissolution, Tion's forces murdered all the council members, as he had found that some were sympathetic to the Rebel Alliance.
Following the expulsion of the Empire from Ralltiir, the High Council was once again formed.
