Farn Trade Guild

The Farn Trade Guild is a major, multi-species trading conglomerate that controls large swaths of trade within the galaxy, and regulates its flow with an iron fist. However, they don't control all trade, and The Nine Ancient Races do much to keep it that way. And, while they can't completely shut down the guild's iron fisted hold on most galactic trade, they are able to keep them in check by running a number of major trade routes of their own, thus bypassing guild control.
