As the Death Star had been destroyed, and the Battle of Yavin had finally taken place, the years then moved into ABY (After the Battle of Yavin). It's said that Star Wars: Return of the Jedi takes place during 4 ABY, meaning Palpatine was 88 when he met his original end.

History. Coruscant was generally accepted as the homeworld of the human species. Some believed that humans hailed from Coruscant, one of the galaxy's so-called Core Worlds, but that theory was never proven. Many humans changed the course of galactic history, from politicians to slaves and even Jedi Knights.
While most of them are humans, there are also Mandalorians of various other species. Mandalore serves as the Mandalorians' home planet. It was originally inhabited by the Taung species, who renamed themselves Mandalorian and created the culture practiced by later non-Taung Mandalorians.
On the planet of Hoth, the temperature in summer, the hottest season, only crawled up to about 10 degrees below freezing. In contrast, the temperatures on Tatooine were so high that only a small part of the planet's northern hemisphere could sustain intelligent life.
According to Lucasfilm Story Group member Pablo Hidalgo, representatives of Lucasfilm were reticent to this idea, since Coruscant was planned to appear in other projects besides The Force Awakens. As a compromise, Hosnian Prime was created to fill the role of the New Republic capital.
