Morishim was a planet in the Albarrio sector of the Outer Rim and the homeworld of the Morish species.
After the Battle of Endor, Morishim was integrated in the Pentastar Alignment and later in the Imperial Remnant. The planet was the location of a secret Imperial communications center. This center, in a cave of the High Tatmana, was left behind after the Empire pulled out to the planet. It was then used by one of the locals and Imperial spy, the Old Recluse, to gain information on galactic affairs and indoctrinate the population.
In 17 ABY, the planet was liberated by the New Republic, which later established a starfighter base there.
In 19 ABY, Imperial Colonel Meizh Vermel was sent on a mission by Admiral Gilad Pellaeon to seek out New Republic General Garm Bel Iblis to ask for peace negotiations. His CR90 corvette was captured by Captain Dorja of the Imperial-class Star Destroyer Relentless above Morishim before his message could be heard properly.
In the early stages of the Yuuzhan Vong War, Morishim was by the Yuuzhan Vong as the invaders continued their strike towards the planet of Coruscant.
The world was likely among those liberated by the Imperial Remnant, as it fell within their expanded territory following the defeat of the Yuuzhan Vong.
