'''Notes:''' <br />
Zeltros was a planet in the [[Inner Rim]], and the homeworld of the [[Zeltron]] race. An opulent world, hedonism was the doctrine encouraged by the empathetic Zeltrons, and Zeltros was continuously in a state of never ending revelry. The [[Zeltron]] appreciation of beauty in its many forms led to luxurious art and architecture covering the world, and the galaxy's most wealthy favored Zeltros as a vacation destination. Many who came to the planet were taken in by the celebratory atmosphere and the powerful pheromones of the [[Zeltron]] people to the point they found it difficult to leave, and even planetary invasions often floundered in the face of Zeltros' planet-wide festivities. <br />
<br />
'''History:''' <br />
In accordance with that species' reputation, Zeltros was known as a luxury world, where many went to vacation, owing to the planet's abundance of pleasurable facilities ranging from amusement parks to theatres, night clubs, and much more. There was almost always a planet-wide party occurring, and even when it wasn't, the Zeltrons were looking for a reason to throw one. Like [[Naboo]], it was ruled by an elective monarchy.

The planet joined the Galactic Republic by 4,000 BBY. Despite its famous atmosphere of leisure, Zeltros maintained a substantial defense force, although it lacked planetary shielding and was susceptible to orbital bombardments. The planet was invaded twelve times in six centuries, the first invasion in 596 BBY and the twelfth battle in 4 ABY. The planet was never taken over by the Empire. To date, almost every invasion of Zeltros, save for a chain of three invasions shortly after the Battle of [[Endor]], broke apart when the invaders made it planetside, the pheromones and party atmosphere overwhelming them.

Of those three, the first was an invasion by the insectile [[Hiromi]], who succeeded in taking over a large kitchen in the royal palace (arguably because the Zeltrons didn't notice, or didn't care), before being interrupted by a successful invasion by the nearly emotionless Nagai, who were interrupted by a third invasion of the [[Tofs]], their natural enemies, resulting in the [[Nagai]] (and the [[Hiromi]]) allying with the others on Zeltros (including several notable Alliance and Imperial members) to drive the [[Tofs]] back, resulting in one of the largest parties in history, no mean feat by [[Zeltron]] standards.
 
The planet was a member of the Alliance of Free Planets and also a New Republic stronghold during the Thrawn Campaign.
 
During the Yuuzhan Vong War, Zeltros was attacked by the [[Yuuzhan Vong]] and the [[Ailon Nova Guard]].
 
During the Second Imperial Civil War, the scarcity of items caused the output of Hutt Queen Jool's illegal activities to skyrocket, allowing her to build the [[Paradise]] cantina on Zeltros. She noted that the Zeltrons were great partygoers and were very attractive, two things from which her business would profit.
