Nal Hutta (Glorious Jewel in Huttese), also known simply as Hutta, was the capital of Hutt Space and was located in the Y'Toub system. The planet's moon Nar Shaddaa was notorious for being a haven of criminal activity. It was on Nal Hutta that the Hutt Council met and ruled the Hutt's extensive criminal empire.
Description[]
Nal Hutta was a hot swampy planet that was covered with numerous bogs and experienced swampy rains. The planet was the adopted homeworld of the Hutt species, who dominated the galactic underworld.
The atmosphere was also polluted by strip-mining operations and heavy industrialization, and a greasy rain drizzled down on the surface, although its terrain was not to the extent of Dagobah.
One of the planet's cities was Bilbousa, which contained the headquarters of the Grand Hutt Council.
History[]
After freeing Ziro the Hutt from prison on Coruscant, the bounty hunter Cad Bane brought the fugitive Hutt to the Grand Hutt Council on Nal Hutta. Ziro refused to divulge the location of his secret holodiary and was imprisoned by the Hutt Council. However, Ziro managed to escape with the help of the singer Sy Snootles. The Jedi Masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Quinlan Vos traveled to Nal Hutt to apprehend Ziro. However, Ziro and Snootles escaped offworld with the help of Ziro's Mama.[5]
While on an undercover mission to save Supreme Chancellor Palpatine from Separatist assassins, Kenobi, who was disguised as the bounty hunter Rako Hardeen, and the fugitives Bane and Moralo Eval crashlanded on the swamps of Nal Hutta. They obtained a starship to travel offworld. Despite being pursued by the Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and Padawan Ahsoka Tano, "Hardeen" and the bounty hunters managed to escape offworld to Orondia.[6]
During the later stage of the Clone Wars, the former Sith apprentice Darth Maul, Savage Opress, and the Shadow Collective visited Nal Hutta and attempted to force the Hutt Council to join their Shadow Collective.
