A mountain was a mass of land that stood significantly above its surroundings. A diverse range of terrestrial planets throughout the galaxy and known universe featured mountains, including Asmeru,^[1] Carida,^[2] Moraband,^[3] Serenno,^[4] Ryloth,^[5] Geonosis,^[6] Oba Diah,^[7] Oosalon,^[8] and Lothal;^[9] they also existed on the extragalactic world of Peridea,^[10] and in the ethereal realm of Mortis.^[11] Those of Alderaan,^[12] Vandor,^[13] and Scipio were capped with snow,^[14] and Coruscant's only uncovered mountain peak was located in Monument Plaza.^[15] A mountain from which lava emerged was referred to as a volcano.^[16]

Mountains could be inhabited, as is the case with both the Galactic Empire's base at Mount Tantiss, carved from a mountain on the planet Wayland,^[17] and the mountains on the planet Dathomir, in which operated a witch clan.^[18] A range of blue mountains on Vagadarr Prime were both inhabited by warring tribes and themselves giants made of living stone.^[19] A mountain on the desolate planet Skara Nal entombed an ancient superweapon kept inert via an artifact known in pirate legend as the Heart of the Mountain.^[20]
