Tammuz-an was a double-ringed planet. The planet's inhabitants, called Tammuz-an, were tall blue- or purple-skinned humanoids governed by a monarchy. The planet was the homeworld of Mon Julpa.
In the early days of the Galactic Empire, an evil vizier by the name of Zatec-Cha wiped the memory of Prince Mon Julpa and cast him away, usurping the throne. Eventually Mon Julpa, the true prince, returned to his homeworld and reclaimed the throne as rightful ruler of Tammuz-an.
Mon Julpa's next act as ruler of Tammuz-an was to put an end to the fighting between the two factions on his world. The kingdom Julpa ruled over was inhabited by the purple-skinned humanoids, while blue-skinned humanoids inhabited Lord Toda's Outer Territories. The two races put aside their differences to vanquish Gir Kybo Ren-Cha, a pirate from the nearby world of Tarnoonga who had long preyed on Tammuz-an. After this brief alliance, the two factions were able to band together to create a unified Tammuz-an.
