Jomark was one of six worlds in the Jomark system. Originally known as Bynas, it was absorbed into Xim's empire as he expanded his borders from the Kingdom of Cron. The planet was mostly covered by ocean, with one small continent called Kalish, colonized in approximately 1,991 BBY, and thousands of small islands dotting the surface. It had a population of 2.8 million spread across Kalish. These colonists lived by fishing and sea farming.
It was at his residence on Jomark that Joruus C'baoth awaited the arrival of Luke Skywalker. In a town near the High Castle, Joruus C'baoth set up his rule, including solving disputes, which he later had Luke do. In one argument, C'baoth used Force lightning on a citizen for attacking another, alarming Luke.
The Yuuzhan Vong captured Jomark during their invasion of the galaxy.[6]
