Lan Barell was a dusty, dry backwater planet located on the Outer Rim of the galaxy near Breshkall. Heavy iron content in the soil gave the planet a faint blue sheen, and when combined with the red glare of its sun, gave the planet a garish and gloomy atmosphere.

BiographyEdit

A dusty planet, Lan Barell was discovered by the Galactic Republic circa 13,000 BBY. A unique world, most of the planet's water was located in the polar ice caps, while the continents existed as plateaus above the dry oceans.^[3] Located on the fringes of the New Sith Empire's space during the New Sith Wars, the planet was enveloped into the Republic following the Ruusan Reformations in the Galactic Senate.^[1] The native Qieg were interested in mining and were responsible for the extensive strip-mining operations on one of their three moons reduced the satellite to mere rubble, while the other two were used as foundations for orbital ore refining plants.. After the planet joined the Republic, Gaminne Group Incorporated managed to gain mining rights. Over the ensuing centuries the Human colonists from the Gaminne Group and the Qieg became so assimilated that they considered each equally entitled to live on the world.^[3]

During the Clone Wars, a conflict between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the planet and the Hook Nebula were protected by the 15th Sector Army of the Grand Army of the Republic.^[4] Following the end of the Clone Wars, the planet and the entire Hook Nebula were conquered by the Galactic Empire in the Five Veils Campaign in 19 BBY.^[4] The Wookiee clan Chyakk worked out of the Shulell spaceport, located twenty kilometers from the city of Carmelle. Under Imperial control Lan Barell's legal system suffered from poor enforcement and several less-savory mining companies opened their doors on the world. As the Empire began to strengthen its forces on the planet in 15 BBY, the Imperials allowed the local government to remain intact so long as they collected taxes on behalf of the Empire. Throughout Imperial control, many refugees fled to Lan Barell to hide in the mines of the planet in fear of persecution by the Empire.^[3]
