Editing Kamino system (section)

==Kamino System==
The Kamino system was a star system located above the galactic plane, within a loose unnamed grouping sector of stars at the lower end of the satellite galaxy known as the [[Rishi Maze]]. Its aging primary sun was orbited by thirteen planets, out of which the fourth, Faa and the fifth, Kamino were terrestrial. 

[[Kamino]] had once been a world largely covered with land, but an an abrupt climate change around 19,000 BBY melted its glaciers, submerging the landmasses beneath hundreds of meters of seawater in two centuries. The sentient inhabitants of the planet, the Kaminoans lost their dryland cities and architectural treasures, such as the capital [[Derem City]] and the [[Clock Spires of Harai Nova]]. However, their technology permitted them to move into stilted cities rising above the global ocean, and their genetic knowledge made the preservation of many drowned species possible through cloning. Such engineering also shaped the Kaminoans themselves into a nearly uniform race. 

In 4,500 BBY, Galactic Republic scouts made contact with [[Kamino]], whose superiority in the field of cloning brought a number of breeding requests from various locations. More than four millennia later, Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas placed an order for a clone army. The Sith Lord Darth Sidious oversaw the project's completion, ensuring its secrecy by having [[Kamino]] deleted from stellar databases. The army eventually participated in the Clone Wars of 22–19 BBY on the side of the Republic, fighting against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. Three battles took place in the system—one in 21 BBY, another in 21.83 BBY and a third in 19.42 BBY, which devastated the cloning facilities. 

After the end of the war, Kamino became a fortress world of the Galactic Empire, dedicated to expand the Stormtrooper Corps, and the clone uprising of 12 BBY—orchestrated by rebellious cloners—was rapidly quelled. In 1 BBY, Starkiller—a renegade clone of the Sith Lord [[Darth Vader]] secret apprentice, Galen Marek—and the Alliance to Restore the Republic also assaulted the planet to free Starkiller's lover, Juno Eclipse. 

The shattering of the Empire in 4 ABY brought about an economic collapse on [[Kamino]], which was forced to survive on smaller contracts, often with warlords or gangsters—a practice the world was still holding in 43 ABY.
