Ryloth

Ryloth was a planet in the Ryloth system of the Outer Rim Territories, and the homeworld of the Twi'lek species. Its terrain varied, filled with jungles, mesas, valleys, and volcanoes, and had an atmosphere breathable to Twi'leks and humans alike. Targeted by the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars, who sought to exploit the planet's resources, Ryloth was liberated in the Battle of Ryloth by a combined force of Twi'lek rebels led by Cham Syndulla and clone troopers of the Galactic Republic. Following the end of the war and the transformation of the Republic into the Galactic Empire, the former Republic presence became a component of an increasingly repressive Imperial military occupation, leading Syndulla to reorganize his rebels into the Free Ryloth Movement in a prolonged campaign to retake their homeworld.
