Summary The capital of the New Republic has moved around quite a bit in Star Wars canon, and there's finally a reason why the government returned to Coruscant in The Mandalorian. Coruscant was the traditional galactic capital of the Star Wars galaxy for thousands of years, and every government from the Old Republic to the Galactic Empire used it as their base of operations.
Related Star Wars: New Republic Timeline Explained The New Republic Era is a brief period of galactic history, but it's vitally important to Star Wars. Here are all the key galactic events! "One of the reasons why the New Republic would eventually move some operations back to Coruscant after the war was because the world was already designed to handle and administer the galaxy's infrastructure."
Coruscant Is Perfectly Placed On Major Hyperspace Lanes In addition to its existing infrastructure, Coruscant also has a prime location on the Star Wars galaxy map. Coruscant was a Core World, meaning it was located at roughly the center of the galaxy. That in itself gave Coruscant a great planet to use as the galactic capital, but it was also located next to several major hyperspace lanes.
