Background: Maridun was the grassy and forested homeworld of the Amanin species. Maridun went unnoticed for many millennia and was considered a haven by those who knew of its existence. The planet came to support a colony of Lurmen who sought to escape the Clone Wars, and was the site of a battle when Confederate General Lok Durd arrived on the planet to test an experimental weapon. Amani could be found on Utapau, where many were refugees from Maridun.
The Galactic Empire officially discovered the planet around 11 BBY after the Amanin contacted them. The Empire created several mining colonies on the planet. The Hutts moved in and enslaved much of the planet when the Empire reduced its presence following the Battle of Maridun.
