[edit] History

Humans discovered the planet around 300 BBY. The world joined the Galactic Republic as capital of Moddell in 50 BBY. The planet was an endpoint of the Annaj-Houche Run.

Since before the Battle of Yavin, the planet served as a staging area for the Imperial Navy prior to operations in the Moddell sector.

Following the Battle of Endor, Captain Gilad Pellaeon ordered the defeated Imperial fleet to retreat to this world, which was nearly two days distance traveling at Class One Hyperdrive speeds. The fleet spent several days regrouping and repairing at the planet.

[edit] Behind the scenes

The in-game encyclopedia entry for Annaj in the PC game Star Wars: Rebellion describes Annaj as a large gas giant. This is contradictory to other sources.
