I am not making up this faction, it is a real one, just from a different Starwars expansion game.
Starwars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
This game has the faction named "Zann Consortium" in it. Yes, I realize it was created thousands of years after the old republic, BUT there can be a Zann Consortium, just in lower tech, and "Tyber Zann, leader of the Zann Consortium"''s past relatives could be the leader of the Zann Consortium.
Btw, if you play the game I mentioned earlier, then you know what Im talking about.
