Drexel II, also called the "waterworld of Drexel," lacked a proper name. It was an ocean-covered planet, with no dry land. Two sentient species were native to the planet: the humanoid Inleshat and the massive Sea-dragons.

[edit] History
Drexel II was once the second planet in the Drexel system, until a catastrophe resulted in the destruction of Drexel I around 5,000 BBY. The catastrophe caused considerable disaster on Drexel II, and a benevolent but a so far unidentified species of beings evacuated the Inleshat from Drexel II and relocated them to Iskalon. The Sea-dragons were not relocated, perhaps because they were less affected by the catastrophe.
[edit] Old Republic era
The Jedi Knights exiled the corrupt Governor Quarg to Drexel II, along with his fellow Human pirates. There, the pirates and their descendants created a unique civilization, centered around a sailing ship that was a mobile city. Quarg was succeeded by his equally corrupt son, the younger Governor Quarg. Some of the inhabitants of the city-ship revolted against Quarg's tyranny. The rebels created a new civilization. They used technology to communicate with native Sea-dragons, with whom they formed a symbiotic lifestyle, and thus became known as Dragon Lords. The Sea-dragons willingly allowed the rebels to ride them and took the rebels to dwell in underwater caves. The Dragon Lords waged constant war on Quarg. The baby Sea-dragons infested the city-ship, acting as spies. The crew of the city-ship ignored the babies, thinking them mere lizards, not realizing they were young Sea-dragons.
[edit] Imperial era
Many years later, the Dragon Lords finally defeated Quarg's son with the help of Leia Organa, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, R2-D2, Chewbacca, and C-3PO, during the Battle of Drexel II. Han Solo defeated the pirate Crimson Jack in orbit over Drexel II.
[edit] New Jedi Order era
During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, a group of Gluss'sa'Nikto established a colony on Drexel II.[1]
