"Poor Denin… I feel so sorry for him… for everyone on his planet. What's happening on Naldar sounds a lot like what happened to my homeworld—Belderone—right before I joined the Alliance. The two planets are even close together… I hear a lot of Belderones took refuge on Naldar…"
―Barney[2]

Naldar was an Outer Rim world in the Phelleem sector. During the Galactic Civil War, Naldar became the target of severe Imperial aggression, withstanding a 2 ABY offensive that killed most of the royal family, and a 4 ABY another Imperial attack subjugated the world. However, Princess Vila, the royal family's sole survivor, returned with an Alliance of Free Planets force that ended the Imperial threat on Naldar.

Description[]

A planet in the Outer Rim's Phelleem sector,[1] Naldar was a world comfortably habitable for Humans. Naldar was located close to the planet Belderone.[2]

History[]

"The Empire… I know the Alliance defeated most of them… but a lot of their forces didn't capitulate. They regrouped on my homeworld&mdashNaldar! They're slaughtering my people…"
Princess Vila[2]

Many refugees from Belderone fled to nearby Naldar when that world was subjugated by the Galactic Empire,[2][3] after the Battle of Hoth. Naldar itself was attacked by the Galactic Empire in 2 ABY. Although the planet initially managed to resist the invasion, Prince Denin was killed while defending the rest of the royal family.[2]

Subjugation of Naldar

Alliance of Free Planets forces and Imperial troopers fighting on Naldar.

Led by the Dark Jedi Flint, Imperial forces finally managed to conquer the planet after the Battle of Endor in 4 ABY. Princess Vila, the last survivor of Naldar's royal family, impersonated her deceased brother Denin—who had wished to be a Jedi Knight—and sought aid from the Alliance of Free Planets on Endor. She returned with a small force led by Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker, who along with Flint's childhood friend Barney managed to convince Flint to cease the attack. However, Vila lost her life in the process, as she took a stormtrooper's blaster bolt intended for Flint.[2]
