Andooweel was an Outer Rim planet in the Andooweel system of the Arkanis sector, located on the Triellus Trade Route.
History
Edit
Discovered during the Great Manifest Period, Andooweel was an impoverished world with small pockets of industrial and agricultural districts, both of which were unsuccessful. At some point several mining operations were begun; though nothing of value was ever uncovered.[2]
Taken by the Hutt Empire during the New Sith Wars, Andooweel was aligned with the Brotherhood of Darkness until their defeat at the hands of the Army of Light. Remaining under Hutt control throughout the Galactic Republic's Golden Age, it played no part in the Clone Wars at the end of the Republic's history. With the rise of the Galactic Empire, the world was annexed by Emperor Palpatine in an attempt to put the Hutts in a controllable territory.[2]
Considered a part of the Spice Triangle, Andooweel was a refuge for swoop gangs and other criminals.[2] As the Imperial Army offered a new life for the disparaged citizens of Andooweel, many of the world's Human population volunteered to train on the planet Sirpar. During the Galactic Civil War, the Andooweelians stationed on Sirpar garnered Imperial anger as a group of Rebel agents successfully infiltrated the base to retrieve starship parts that had been stashed within the Sirpar base.[4]
Surviving the terrors of the Yuuzhan Vong War, the world was a member of Darth Krayt's Empire as of 137 ABY.[2]
