Ganath was a planet hidden within the unchartered depths of a cloud of intensely radioactive interstellar gas near Nal Hutta.

The severely injured Jedi Knight Empatojayos Brand hid there and survived the Great Jedi Purge. He was made king of the Ganathans and ruled by the Jedi creed of justice until discovered by Leia Organa Solo fleeing from Nar Shaddaa during the crises surrounding the ressurected Emperor on 10 ABY. He joined her, leaving Ganath behind.

At a later point, the Ganathan cruiser Robida Colossus joined the Rebel fleet, possibly indicating Ganath joined the New Republic.

Allegiances aside, Ganath was lucky to avoid attracting the attention of the Yuuzhan Vong during the Yuuzhan Vong War.^[1]
