Kamino

Kamino is an aquatic planet located in the southwest galaxy. As the entire planet is covered in ocean, most infrastructure exists on elevated platforms. The planet is inhabited by the Kaminoans—a race of tall, elegant beings with long necks who invented the technology that created the clone army for the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. Unknown to the Republic or even the clones, though, members of the Kaminoan species involved in the breeding of the clones were in league with Darth Sidious, who was partially responsible for the clone army's creation, and ordered every clone implanted with a techno-organic inhibitor chip in their brain that, when activated, would cause them to become mindlessly obedient to their officers and kill anyone resembling a Jedi, as part of Palpatine's bid to take over the Republic.

After Order 66 and the transformation of the Republic into the Galactic Empire, the creation of new clones was either reduced or stalled entirely, and the Empire would now be policed by an army or regular recruits and conscripts. However, Rico's Brigade saw Kamino as essential for its war effort, due to the planet being the only one in the galaxy capable of producing new clones on a large scale. With the help of the Rebel Alliance, Rico's Brigade was able to capture the planet despite heavy casualties, then defeat a counter-attack lead by Trip Hansen.
