Description
An astronomical object in the Gall system, in the Kadavin sector of the Outer Rim, where an Imperial spaceport was located.
During the Clone Wars, a fleet supply depot and factories producing components for the Rothana Heavy Engineering company were located here; production was managed by the clan of the cacique Jans Kursa. The council of elders decided to secede from the Republic and join the Confederacy of Independent Systems, but the Republic could not afford to lose such a facility and besieged the world. The resistance was led by Kursa himself, who earned the nickname the Ghost of Gall for his ability to anticipate the enemy's countermoves. The struggle continued even after the Republic became the Empire; in the end, the Imperials established who was hiding behind the nickname and exterminated the inhabitants of his village.
In 3 ABY, after the capture of Han Solo, Boba Fett was seen at the local spaceport repairing his ship, which drew rescuers sent by Leia Organa here.
