Sometime following 0 BBY, Mos Taike was vulnerable to repeated Tusken Raider attacks. The mayor pleaded with both the Galactic Empire and Jabba the Hutt for protection, but to no avail. Fortunately for the mayor, with the help of a devoted spacer, the city managed to gather enough citizens to repel a massive Tusken raid.[2]
