Tatooine

The Movies

The Old Republic and the Empire that supplanted it paid very little attention to the remote planet Tatooine . Ironically, beings that called this dusty world home would be influential in bringing down both galactic governments.

Expanded Universe

Though the Arkanis sector is exceedingly remote, it is permeated by a number of high-traffic hyperspace routes. Several of these join in a point in space close to Tatooine .

Behind the Scenes

Tatooine was originally named Aquilae in the draft scripts of Star Wars , before adopting a name very similar to the southern Tunisian city of Tataouine.
