The blockade of Pantora was established during the Clone Wars by the Trade Federation above the moon Pantora, in the Pantora system. Orchestrated by Sib Canay and Lott Dod, the move was done in an attempt to force Pantora to join the Separatist Alliance. To increase pressure, the daughters of the Pantoran Chairman Papanoida were kidnapped as well. With the assistance Jedi Ahsoka Tano, Pantoran Senator Riyo Chuchi and Chairman Papnoida were able to rescue both daughters and uncover the conspiracy, forcing the Trade Federation to lift the blockade.
