Typha-Dor was a planet located within the Uziel system of the Outer Rim Territories.
The planet was rich in natural resources, with abundant sunshine and water, and had a "string of moons," one of which was satellite TY44, so named because of its coordinates.
Large and varied, Typha-Dor had twin capital cities, Sarus-Dor and Ith-Dor, two rulers, and a substantial workforce. Even so, the government's High Council had never managed to learn how to truly manage and convert the planet's resources into the wealth it needed.
In 25 BBY, thanks to the mediation efforts of Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, who were sent by the Jedi High Council at the request of the Galactic Senate, Typha-Dor—under its "twin rulers" Binalu and Talus—established a ceasefire with its longtime rival Vanqor, a neighboring world that had attempted to invade and conquer it.
