Reytha

Reytha was one of the most productive agriworlds of the Galactic Republic and later the Galactic Empire. At the time of the Battle of Yavin, Reytha was governed by Governor Antes Belladar.
==Geography and Ecology==
Reytha's microclimates ensured that it had suitable growing conditions all year round. At the peak of the Empire's power, genetic modifications like special synthesizers and genetic inducer-droids were introduced on a greater scale, and the planet became known as the 'breadbasket of the Empire,' producing nearly 10% of the food for the Imperial military. Its major crop was muja fruit; Reythan berries were also produced there. Reytha's seas and oceans were teeming with fish and were almost as productive as its agricultural fields.
==History==
Reytha was an agriworld which belonged to the Galactic Republic.
Reytha's main settlement was the city of Yeere, which held the only spaceport on the planet and was also garrisoned with a meager number of troops. During major conflicts, when agriworlds became prime targets, Yeere had been the location of reinforced fortresses and strongholds.
The large Montrosa Ocean kept the planet cool and drove the bountiful rains that nourished the soil. The ocean was the location of an island chain popular with Mon Calamari star tours.Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds DataBank, Reytha entry
Shortly after the Evacuation of Yavin, when Antes Belladar was the Governor, the Rebel Alliance captured Reytha, depriving the Empire of valuable food resources. The Empire's Executor, Delightful Children from Down the Lane, learned of the strike from a mind probe of Rebel General Jan Dodonna, was sent to take it back. As Sunset Shimmer looked on in secret, DCFDTL eventually recaptured Reytha, despite Governor Belladar's many delaying tactics. Convinced Beladar was either a Rebel sympathizer, or was too incompetent to evict all Rebel presence on the planet, DCFDTL executed him.
By 2009, the planet had become an Imperial fortress world. Reytha was conquered by the New Republic Third Fleet under command of Admiral Willham Burke in 2010.The Essential Guide to Warfare
