Belsavis prison

Belsavis prison was a massive detention facility located on the planet Belsavis in the Outer Rim Territories. Major portions and structures that comprised the complex were originally constructed by the Rakatans of the Infinite Empire in the Pre-Republic era, but the fall of the Empire's dominion resulted in the abandonment of the facility. Rakatan war criminals and other monstrosities were left behind in the deepest recesses of the structure. Thousands of years later, the Galactic Republic's Strategic Information Service rediscovered Belsavis and the Rakatan prison on the surface. The Republic, which was at war with the Sith Empire, built major additions into the complex and added modern securities and amenities before adopting the facility for its own use.

During the Great Galactic War, the prison played host to Sith Lords, Mandalorians, rebels, violent species, political prisoners, and more. The most dangerous inmates were sent to The Tomb: the most secure and secretive portion of the complex that was still staffed and operated by ancient Rakatan warden droids. Around 3,643 BBY, at the end of the Cold War, the Sith Empire leaned of the prison's existence and launched a full-scale operation to free Imperial prisoners of war and to disrupt Republic operations on the world. The massive prison complex became a warzone that ultimately destroyed much of the facility itself and released many of the ancient Rakatan terrors.
