Santhe/Sienar Technologies

Santhe/Sienar Technologies is a fictional business featured in the Star Wars multimedia franchise. It is part of the original Expanded Universe and was not seen or referenced in any of the main films. However, the company's products are presented in nearly every aspect of the franchise.

The company was formed as a merger between members of the Sienar family of Republic Sienar Systems and Santhe Security, which came about as a result of an arranged marriage. This conglomeration became known as the Santhe Corporation, which eventually evolved into Santhe/Sienar Technologies. The company specialized in the manufacturing of airships and starships, and became one of the biggest intergalactic contractors for the Galactic Republic. During the Clone Wars, one of Santhe/Sienar's subsidiaries, Sienar Fleet Systems, arranged for massive contracts for the Confederacy of Independent Systems. As a result, the Republic tried to have the company shut down, but the machinations of Chancellor Palpatine kept the business going strong.

The Galactic Republic was restructured as the First Galactic Empire under the rule of the self-appointed Emperor Palpatine. In the years leading up to the Galactic Civil War, Santhe/Sienar became the chief supplier of military fighter craft for the Empire. Following the war, Sienar Fleet Systems fell into bankruptcy and they were bought out by the Intergalactic Banking Clan.

In the decades following the war, Sienar Fleet Systems was repackaged into two separate manufacturing subsidiaries, Sienar-Jaemus Fleet Systems and Sienar-Jaemus Army Systems. Both factions provided technology and equipment to the rising First Order.
