Nadiem was a remote planet in the Outer Rim Territories. It was close to Teth.
History[]
During the Clone Wars, Nadiem was captured by the Confederacy of Independent Systems five months after the First Battle of Geonosis. According to native Crys Taanzer, who was present at the time of the attack, Nadiem was caught in the middle. With no real military value for either side, it was attacked mainly because the Galactic Republic chose to defend it. Civilian casualties were heavy, the Jedi helping the civilians there were killed, and the defenses crumbled. The survivors, and the planet itself, were forgotten about afterward as far as Crys could tell.
However, the Republic was eventually able to take back the planet with a group of clone troopers led by Jedi Master Luminara Unduli and her Padawan Barriss Offee. B'dard Tone, presumably during that battle, was horribly injured by General Grievous.[3]
Several years before the Battle of Yavin, the planet was known for containing a small farming colony. Han Solo claimed that the farmers had bought him Jaina's Light to make cargo runs for them.
