The Essential Guide to Characters says he's from Corellia, but I don't know where they're getting that from...

Talking with my best friend, a huge SW fan, Pellaeon is from Coruscant (he believes) and Phennir might be from Corellia.

Speaking of homeworlds, from which planet did humans in SW as a whole originate from? I don't believe this issue was ever dealt with.

Well, I'm in the process of reading the chronology, and it mentions "lost human colony worlds". No light into where they come from, though.

We sent colonies out that long ago? Wow. And we thought it was bad when the Greco-Roman culture was lost. We had spaceflight millions of years ago!

A stupid question from a newbie, but here comes:
Has any of the SW movies so far established that Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Ben Kenobi or Lando Carlissian are considered "humans"?
Han obviously is a Corellian, but that need not be his species. The others are indeterminate. And in TPM, the writers obviously go the great lengths to avoid saying the word "human" - it's always just "your species" in that movie. Other movies seem to skirt the issue altogether. I couldn't vouch for the extended universe, though.
So, is there such a thing as "the human race" in the SW galaxy?

Well, apparently all empire-staff on all Star destroyers come from the same species. But that red-eyed freak Thrawn, what is he?

I think it is generally accepted that when they look like humans, they are humans. I'm not sure, but I think the Human homeworld has never been mentioned and Coruscant, Corellia, etc, etc are not the homeworlds. Its sort of like how people from America are called Americans, although they might come from Ireland, or Germany, or Russia, or South Africa, etc. So people who live on Corellia are called Corellians but that does not mean that they originate from there.

Well, let's see. We have Correllians, Coruscantians, Alderaanians, Tatooines, what else?
