Ruisto

Ruisto was a planet located in the Calamari sector of the Outer Rim Territories.
==Description==
Ruisto was a mostly terrestrial world with small, high-saline oceans. It was home to a colony of Mon Calamari who had built small shipyards in orbit of the planet.
==History==
Between 4400 and 4200 BBY, Ruisto became the very first world colonized by the Mon Calamari outside their own star system.
In 4166 BBY, Old Republic scouts made the first contact with Mon Calamari starships near Ruisto during the expansion of the Perlemian Trade Route.
In 2 ABY, the aged Grand Moff Therbon grew frustrated with his inability to retake Mon Calamari. Since the Empire had been unwilling to gather a fleet large enough to assault the Mon Calamari homeworld, the Mon Calamari colony on Ruisto became a suitable substitute target. The Empire deployed an assault fleet comprised of Star Destroyers to bombard Ruisto. During the attack, Grand Moff Therbon ordered a sustained orbital bombardment that wiped out all life on Ruisto.
