Naboo Moon Mining Union
this union was formed to represent the various miners who worked in the Naboo System during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. It was formed by forty mining ships and their crews, and was created to ensure proper pricing of the kassoti spice found on the smallest Naboo moon. The Union was forced to land at remote starports on Naboo after the government opened the planet to refugees who were fleeing their homeworlds after secession from the Old Republic. The plan was to ensure safe arrival at Naboo, but the Union began staging "sit-in" protests by leaving their mining ships in port, against the orders of the portmasters.
