Bendeluum was a world located within the Anoat sector of the Outer Rim Territories, and was classified as a planet. It served as the central headquarters for the independent criminal enterprise known as the Nothoiin cartel. During the era of the Iron Blockade, conflicts between rival gangs erupted on Bendeluum, causing interruptions to commerce and posing a threat to the safety of the inhabitants. Seeking to safeguard their establishments, certain business owners provided crystals as payment to those willing to suppress the widespread unrest at that time.
