Feldrona

Feldrona was a planet located in the Feldrona system, a part of the Glythe sector in the New Territories portion of the Mid Rim. At some point, it was colonized by members of the Zabrak species from the Glythe sector planet Iridonia.

After its establishment in 130 ABY, several of Iridonia's seven colony worlds rebelled against the new dominance of the Galactic Empire ruled by the Sith Lord Darth Krayt. In response, the Empire devastated two of the colonies via orbital bombardment, and afterward, the remaining five worlds surrendered to Imperial forces. The Sith Lord in charge of Iridonia and its colonies subsequently decreed that, as punishment for the colonies' betrayal, Feldrona be transformed into a tightly controlled Imperial prison world. The planet was then cordoned off and used to exile criminals.
