Lanz Carpo

Lanz Carpo was a small planet located in the Lanz Carpo system of the Core Worlds, possessing one of the highest crime rates in the region. It was controlled by Boss Carpo and his Carpo Crime Syndicate, and avoided occupation by the Galactic Empire due to Carpo informing on many Rebel Alliance members. General Carlist Rieekan of the Rebel Alliance sent Leia Organa and Han Solo on a mission to Lanz Carpo in order to trick the Empire into thinking Carpo was working with the rebels, drawing attention away from their other operations.
