[edit] History
The Toydarian homeworld was covered with nutrient-rich muck-lakes, which supported a number of predators including dangerous grabworms. Toydarians survived by flying virtually everywhere, only landing on the relative safety of alga mats. Toydarians originally lived off the nutrients but later resorted to farming for food. Sustenance for the food on Toydaria was so great that on average every 30 standard years depending on weather cycles, shortages would occur and the Toydarians would steal or even poison their neighbor's food supply, under the belief that if they couldn't have it, no one should.
Because there were so many Toydarians flying around on their home world, the use of speeders was illegal. Spaceship traffic was only allowed to land or take off in specified areas to avoid collisions. To help travel around their world, Toydarians created a light-rail system that took them from city to city. Very little galactic-level technology was incorporated on Toydaria because most Toydarians preferred to live in below galactic-standard villages.
During the Clone Wars, Toydaria was ruled by King Katuunko, who entered into an agreement with the Galactic Republic to allow them to build a base on his territory, following the Battle of Rugosa.
During the Imperial Period, the Galactic Empire subjugated Toydaria. The task force was led by Darth Vader.
During their invasion of the galaxy, the Yuuzhan Vong landed on Toydaria as part of their advance into Hutt Space. However, they encountered heavy resistance from the Toydarians, who had gained assistance from smugglers and the New Republic.
