HistoryEdit

The inhabitants of Aleen lived both above and beneath the planet's surface. Above ground lived the peaceful Aleena for whom the planet was named. Beneath the surface dwelled the tree-like Kindalo and the mystical being, Orphne. Air became naturally filtered as it fell through the ground, to the point that it was breathable by the Kindalo. Unfiltered surface air poisoned the Kindalo. Likewise, filtered subterranean air was poisonous to the surface dwellers.

Discovered by Galactic Republic scouts during the Great Manifest Period, Aleen was contested over during the New Sith Wars, but ultimately fell to the Republic when the Brotherhood of Darkness was repelled. Granted direct representation in the Galactic Senate; the world was represented by Senator Bogg Tyrell during the waning days of the Republic.^[source?]

Over the years aligned with the Senate, the world welcomed the construction of a chapter house of the Jedi Order.^[4]. The world was known to have produced at least two Jedi Masters, Tsui Choi and Kazdan Paratus, who both served during the Clone Wars. Around 21 BBY, the planet began suffering from groundquakes caused by the Kindalo because the seal had been opened under mysterious circumstances. The Kindalo thought the Aleena were responsible and so caused massive groundquakes in retaliation prompting the Galactic Republic to send a squad of clones led by Wolffe also accompanied by C-3PO and R2-D2 for translation, to undergo a relief mission. There, the droids discovered the Underworld and were able to seal the breach and restoring peace. Although the clones were skeptical, the Aleena were overjoyed.

Remaining neutral during these violent battles, Aleen managed to escape the more violent conflicts and joined the Galactic Empire upon its establishment.^[2]

Remaining out of further conflicts, the planet would accept New Republic rule and later the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances's helping hand after the Yuuzhan Vong War. As of 137 ABY, Aleen was deep in the space of Darth Krayt's Galactic Empire.^[2]
