Kalimahr was a cosmopolitan planet with three moons that was located within the Tython system of the galaxy's Deep Core region. More than thirty-six thousand years before the Battle of Yavin, it was the first planet the non–Force-sensitive settlers of the planet Tython colonized. By 25,793 BBY, Kalimahr had become a business and religious center of the system, boasting a high-density, well-integrated population and cities built out of white metal, along with tall spires. Kalimahr was referred to as the "jewel of the Tython system" by that time.
