Protazk

Protazk was a terrestrial world located in the Protazk system, a part of the Kwymar sector of the Outer Rim Territories. It was the site of Spuma Flats, a region that shared its name with the Seswenna sector planet Spuma. The terrain there included a flat, dusty plain on which laser emplacement towers and trenches were at one point established.

As part of the Kwymar Suppressions campaign that took place by 17 BBY, the Galactic Empire carried out a ruthless assault on Protazk in order to suppress an insurgency. At one point in the engagement, a landing barge deployed the repulsortank Hammer 3:2 of the Imperial Hammers Elite Armor Unit onto a plain of Spuma Flats where the insurgents had taken up defensive positions. During the tank's deployment, its driver Gortz looked out the vehicle's viewport and cursed, characterizing Protazk as "another dirt-ball world." Hammer 3:2 then joined other repulsortanks of Squad three in advancing on the trenches.
