Fortress

A fortress, or more causally a fort, was a rudely constructed building used for army purposes, especially to one used by lower-end technological civilizations. Often, however, it was a heavily armored ground installation built on a battlefield or strategic location to act as a command center or palace. Some fortresses were used by the Separatist leader Nute Gunray during the Clone Wars on planets like Cato Neimoidia and other worlds. The installations were used by the Trade Federation, Gungans, Royal Naboo Security Forces, Wookiees, Galactic Republic, Confederacy, Galactic Empire, the Rebel Alliance and the New Republic.
