New Alderaan was a planet where thousands of former residents of Alderaan moved to after the Destruction of Alderaan by the first Death Star.

[edit] History
The planet was governed by the Alderaan Alliance, presumably headed by the Alderaanian Council. It was established by the Alliance Support Service, including Lieutenant Deeve, founded by the Rebel Alliance in the period proceeding the Battle of Yavin.
Black Sun made an Airspeeder company called New Planet Motors which turned out to be just a scam to get money from New Republic citizens.
The planet's location was known only to a select few top-level New Republic leaders, making it a perfect safe world. Despite their efforts, the world was devastated by Imperial Remnant Warlord Zsinj in 7 ABY, and later the forces of the clone Emperor Palpatine in 10 ABY. Presumably after Zsinj's death in 8 ABY the New Republic reclaimed the planet, as well as after Palpatine's final death in 11 ABY.
At some point during the Galactic Civil War, Lieda Mothma recovered on New Alderaan from an unspecified injury or sickness. Jan Dodonna retired on New Alderaan, where he died of old age in 24 ABY.
