Legend

this Mid-Rim planet, the primary world in the Druckenwell System of the Doldur Sector, is a mining world on which the ruling elite is out-numbered substantially by the general working populace. The social and economic divisions between the two groups is astonishing, and was made even greater during the Imperial occupation. Most of its cities are overcrowded, and the few wetlands that separate them are subject to pollution. The average day on Druckenwell lasted 32 standard hours. The average year lasted 309 local days. Located along the Corellian Run, Druckenwell was forced to bring its small naval force to full alert, after the Yuuzhan Vong attacked Kalarba and Hosk Station. However, the small force was no match for the alien invaders, who overran the planet before taking Falleen. The corporate leaders of Druckenwell quickly capitulated to the Yuuzhan Vong, vowing to dismantle their cities and provide arable land for growing food and other resources.
