HistoryEdit

The Moogans originated on the planet Mooga, in the Mooga system of the Perkell sector, located along the northeastern border of the Mid Rim.^[1] Mooga, while not positioned far from the Perlemian Trade Route, was largely ignored by the blossoming Galactic Republic until a period lasting from 5,000 BBY to 3,000 BBY.^[3] Around 3,956 BBY, the planet was in Sith territory controlled by Darth Revan.^[4] As the centuries progressed up to the Ruusan campaign, Mooga continued its existence on the borders of Sith space and unaligned territory.^[5]

By the time of the Clone Wars, their planet fell under the control of the Commerce Guild and became integrated into Separatist space.^[2][6] Officials from the planet Mandalore, which had its supply lines cut due to its neutral stance against the war, began communications with the Moogans in order to smuggle products to the surface and establish a black market.^[7] Among the goods was the Ardees Beverage tea, which was diluted with a harmful chemical in order to increase their profits from the sale of the tea.^[2] The smuggling ring was identified and decimated by Mandalorian police, led by Satine Kryze and Padmé Amidala, before being linked to Almec, the Prime Minister of the New Mandalorians.^[2][7]

After the fall of the Galactic Republic, Moogan space was converted to territory of the Galactic Empire, and would remain this way for the remainder of its rule.^[3] By 4 ABY, the Empire had fractured into several proxy territories. The Greater Maldrood was one of these outlier regions that incorporated Moogan space,^[8] and would hold it until its fragmentation between 9 ABY and 12 ABY, when the region was reclassified the Borderland Regions.^[9] The Perkell sector existed for several years split between Imperial and New Republic interests until the Yuuzhan Vong War, in which the nearby Aargonar system was attacked. Many worlds surrounding the system were attacked and conquered by the Yuuzhan Vong.^[10] The Mooga system would again fall under Sith control by 137 ABY with the rise of Darth Krayt's Galactic Empire.^[11]
