Corellian Embassy was an internet archive of Star Wars fan fiction that had previously been published in print Star Wars Zines, most of which hadn't been available since their publication in the 80s and 90s. Fan writers who had published in the early fanzines of the 70s and 80s were contacted and asked for their permission for their stories to be scanned and uploaded to the site. No stories were archived without permission from the author. The site's original mission was to archive stories starring Han Solo. The site had two main indices, one with stories listed by title and the other by author. In 2006, 350 stories had been scanned and archived, with over forty authors.

During the 80s and 90s, there were several long-running Harrison Ford fanzines (examples: Facets, Flip of a Coin, and Choice Parts), which included fan fiction from Star Wars, the Indiana Jones movies, and other films starring Ford. Eventually the site also began to archive these fanzine stories, opening up separate categories for Fan Fiction based on Harrison Ford's other characters, other Star Wars Original Trilogy Fan Fiction (which was any story where Han was not the main character), Prequel Trilogy Fan Fiction, and a separate index for Crossover Fan Fiction.

In June of 2006, The Corellian Embassy was adopted by Aquarius, editor of the Star Wars site This is Some Rescue.
