Aldhani dam

The Aldhani dam, also known as Aldhani's outpost, was an Imperial base established on the planet Aldhani in around 18 BBY that housed the planetary garrison as well as the vault where the entire sector's quarterly payroll was stored. It was located on the valley of Akti Amaugh, damming up the Nasma Klain river, and comprised of several facilities including the dam, a communications bunker, barracks, and hangar facilities.

The dam was the site of a major attack by a group of rebel saboteurs in 5 BBY; the attackers managed to infiltrate the facility on the day of the local festival for the celestial event of the Eye of Aldhani and stole eighty million credits, the majority of the sector's payroll. The severity of the attack led to the implementation of Empire-wide measures in response to the growing insurgency movement, including the civilian-focused Public Order Resentencing Directive and the military Imperial Emergency Act.
