Nathanaeu Bastele was a Human male politician who served as the Chief of State of the Galactic Alliance during the Third Galactic Civil War. Bastele was born to a poor family in the slums of Corellia in 970 ABY, and he grew up learning to believe in the virtues of good governance on a galactic level. With his belief in government action came his decision to enter a life of public service.

Bastele’s first elected office was on the Coronet City Council, where he became an advocate against poverty. He was elected to the Corellian Parliament seven years later, where he introduced a number of successful anti-poverty measures. In spite of his success, Parliament did not approve any additional measures due to cost concerns, so Bastele chose to run for Corellia’s seat in the Galactic Congress to enact change on a galactic level.

Elected in spite of strong opposition from those opposed to additional involvement in the Alliance government, Representative Bastele pushed for anti-poverty measures to be taken by the Galactic Alliance, which saw some success in that area. He was nominated for Chief of State in 1,011 ABY, and he was elected shortly after the outbreak of the Third Galactic Civil War. As Chief of State, he was a strong proponent of a military response to the New Sith Imperium.
