Moraband

"Careful we must be. Deserted this planet was, long ago after many wars."

- Yoda

Moraband was a planet that was the ancient homeworld of the Sith.

Description
A world of mountains and red sands, Moraband was abandoned after widespread devastation during numerous wars. It was the site of the Valley of the Dark Lords, a valley filled with tombs for ancient Sith Lords such as Darth Bane.

History
"Master Yoda has come to Moraband, although why, I do not know. We shall, however, use the strong bond that once existed between you and your master to allow us to see things that we otherwise could not."

- Darth Sidious, to Count Dooku

During the Clone Wars, the Jedi Master Yoda traveled to Moraband on a spiritual pilgrimage, and faced a number of spiritual trials and the power of the dark side of the Force.

Behind the scenes
In the Star Wars Legends continuity, Moraband was named Korriban and served as the homeworld of the Sith species. It was first introduced in the new Star Wars canon in "Sacrifice," an episode of the television series Star Wars: The Clone Wars. George Lucas preferred the name Moraband over Korriban during story development, leading canon material to refer to the planet as Moraband though names can be diverse during different eras.
