Muunilinst was a Separatist controlled, mineral-rich planet in the Outer Rim Territories. It was a colony world of the Muun species.

Capital[]

The Capital city was Harnaidan, the headquarters of the InterGalactic Banking Clan. Built around a series of magnificent spires reaching four kilometers into the sky, Harnaidan had a population of more than fifty million.

History[]

Consistent with its reputation for playing both sides, Muunilinst simultaneously backed the currency of the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems during the Clone Wars. Alliances with the Confederacy, however, led to Separatist forces building droid factories and munitions depots on Muunilinst, over the objections of most of the Muuns. Desperate, they turned in secret to the Republic for aid, even while San Hill and the IGBC collaborated with the Separatists. This led to a series of ruinous battles.

During the Battle of Muunilinst in 22 BBY, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, and Voolvif Monn retook the planet for the Republic, but at great cost. The Separatists fought savagely to hold the planet, with waves of battle droids and a special platoon of IG lancer combat droids led by Jedi hunter Durge. Confederate gun emplacements operated from within the cities, leaving Republic forces no choice but to assault the cities directly. The battle devastated the Muun infrastructure and led the galaxy to the brink of financial ruin.[12] Sometime later, Muunilinst came back under Separatist control as at the end of the war.
