Tangletown

Canon Linked from 10 articles

Tangletown was a small, once-thriving farming community on the Outer Rim planet Lothal. It proudly referred to itself as the "Food Basket of Lothal" due to its production of fruits, spices, vegetables, and other flavors. In addition to agricultural importance, Tangletown also promoted itself as the "Relaxation Oasis of the Outer Rim," featuring a historic downtown that served as a tourist attraction.

During the Imperial Era, the Galactic Empire occupied Lothal and began mining its land for ore. Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin ordered the forced displacement of Tangletown's citizens, leading to the relocation of its residents and those of other outlying farming communities to a re-settlement camp that came to be derisively known as Tarkintown.
