Background: Ord Mantell was a planet located in the Bright Jewel system of the galaxy’s Mid Rim that was the homeworld of the Mantellian Savrip species. During the expansion of the Galactic Republic, Ord Mantell was colonized around 12,000 BBY by Corellian settlers, where it became an Ordnance/Regional Depot outpost. In the waning days of the Republic, Ord Mantell City housed a base of operations for the Black Sun crime syndicate. It later came under control of the Galactic Empire and became home to an Imperial deepdock.
