Circarpous V was the home planet of the Coway, the Mimbanites, and the extinct Thrella. The planet, locally known as Mimban, was of the Circarpous Major system. The Galactic Empire set up mining facilities on the planet. The planet was the location of the kaiburr crystal within the Temple of Pomojema. Lord Cronal used thaissen crystals from Mimban to make the Force Detectors. The Galactic Empire also established five mining towns on the planet. Mimban was the site of the first battle between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker.
It was rumored that the Yuuzhan Vong fire breathers obtained from Mimban some swamp gas for the invasion of Gyndine.
The dangerous wandrella was a representative creature native to this planet.
