KASHYYYK

Chewbacca's planet is cover with a complex jungle made by several layers.

Kashyyyk is a large, habitable planet located in the Mid Rim, in the Kashyyyk system. It is far from the central trade lanes, so there are not many non-Wookiee visitors, although they do get traders occasionally. Not too many traders like going to the planet, as the Wookiees often lose their tempers during business deals that don't go their way. Kashyyyk has three silvery moons and four continents. Each layer (and there is seven level) is very different and the more it's closer to the ground, the more it's dangerous.
There is four different species of wookies, Chewbacca belongs to the rwook subspecies. Wookies are living in the most upper layer, on Wroshyrs trees. This trees reach sometimes 800 meters high. Wroshyrs from a same region come in fact from a same tree that had several different trunks.
Wookies villages don't look like primitive one but are complicated structures. The ground of this villages are made by big branchs of Wroshyrs, that can fuse with others.
Several houses are build directly inside the trunk of Wroshyr.
