[edit] Overview
Manaan is completely covered in water, except for Ahto City, a large city made by the Selkath, the native species on Manaan. It was once the galaxy's most important planet besides Coruscant for being the sole planet where kolto, a plant with natural healing properties, can be grown. Kolto harvesting and shipping is the planet's central industry. The Selkath exploit this resource financially selling it to both the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic and have threatened to destroy the source of kolto should either party attack them.
The planet features an oceanic swoop-racing course, several hotels and cantinas, both Sith and Republic embassies. It also has an underwater research station that is attacked by a giant firaxan shark that is defending the kolto and its young. It was once a member world of the Infinite Empire, and concealed a Rakatan Star Map in its watery depths.
