The planet of Mon Gazza was once home to a spicemining colony, second only to Kessel in spice mining production. A violent, poverty-stricken world, it was controlled by the Galactic Spice Mining Guild. Mon Gazza was also the homeworld of the young JediZett Jukassa.
Barren, dusty, and red, Mon Gazza's only other notable features were the podraces held there in its prime, before the Galactic Empire outlawed the dangerous sport. Some of the races were held in unused spice mines that had been opened for the races. The tracks include Mon Gazza Speedway, Spice Mine Run, Zugga Challenge, and Mon Gazza Maze.
