Kuan
one of two habitable planets in the Taroon System, Kuan was invaded by the Empire just before the Battle of Hoth. Kuan and its sister planet, Bordal, had been locked in a bitter, decades-old war, although no one remembered the exact cause. The Kuan economy was in ruins, and the planetary government had declared martial law. The Empire, seeing an opportunity, entered the system to bring news of Palpatine's removal of the supposed dead wood of the Old Republic. The Empire blamed the planet's economic crisis on the Old Republic, and swayed the Kuani to join the Empire. The planet's primary inhabitants are human. The planet has many moons.
