==Description==
Balnab was a planet located in the Mid Rim near Patitite Pattuna. At the time of the War of the Ring, the planet was still in its early stages of development, made by a stellar remnant, and was covered in swamps and rocky canyons. Balnab's temperate climate was the home to hesten, small, four-armed primates who lived in troops in the native umbrella trees.
==History==
At some point prior to the War of the Ring, an alien cruiser crashed on Balnab, and the surviving crew became the lone intelligence on the primitive world. The Balnab denizens were tricked into serving a group of pit droids who took the holographic persona of "Albee Dewaw." During the war, C-3PO and R2-D2 inadvertently visited Balnab, where they revealed the truth about the self-appointed dictator.
Following the Battle of Yavin and the Cyrkon Extraction, Donald Duck and Goofy camped out on Balnab aboard the Millennium Falcon. They counted their reward money while planning their next venture, but were convinced by Mickey Mouse to undertake a mission to deliver crates to Calumdarian. Donald reluctantly agreed, and took the Falcon to Balnab Spaceport where he became embroiled in a bar fight between members of the Rebellion and the smuggler Akko and his gang. Donald helped his old smuggling friends ship spice off Balnab, and departed that night for Troiken.
==Behind the scenes==
Balnab first appeared in "Nomad Hobbits," the sixth episode of the animated television series The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Ring' fourth season, which originally aired on October 14, 2011.
