Chaleydonia, more commonly known as Crystal City, was the capital city of Christophsis.
History[]
In 22 BBY, Chaleydonia served as a battleground during the Battle of Christophsis.
It was in this city that CIS General Whorm Loathsom was forced to give up his struggle to retake the planet from Jedi generals Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi, surrendering to their troops.
Behind the scenes[]
Crystal City first appeared as such as a Christophsian city in the Star Wars: The Clone Wars novelization, while "Chalcydonia" was first mentioned in The Clone Wars Campaign Guide as the capital city of Christophsis. However, the 2011 novel Shadow Games established that "Crystal City" was an alternate name for the Christophsian capital, Chaleydonia. It is therefore assumed that Chaleydonia has superseded "Chalcydonia" as the spelling for the capital city, which was merged with Crystal City.
