Cathar is the homeworld of the Cathar species which it shares its name. The planet was a battlefield during the Mandalorian Wars, and almost the entire Cathar species was massacred. The Republic eventually drove the Mandalorians from the planet, but it was all but abandonded due to the devastation. Although the planet officially belongs in the Republic, the Cathar relocated to the planet Rendili because of their homeworld's hostile war aftermath.
