Betha II was a planet characterized by its arid, desolate landscape of yellow-orange rock, coupled with weak gravitational forces and minimal atmospheric humidity. This world resided within the Betha system of the Corva sector, situated at the center of the Daranc Run.
Initially, it possessed a more welcoming environment with greater atmospheric moisture, experiencing colonization by the Republic and flourishing as a bustling port of call. However, due to the planet's desiccation, it faced abandonment. Approximately 20 BBY, smugglers later re-established a presence on Betha II, millennia after its initial abandonment. To adapt to the frequent surface-level occurrences of dust and sandstorms, the smugglers enlarged the existing caves and canyons, linking them via tunnels to create underground dwellings. Later, New Republic Intelligence uncovered the infiltration of the planet by the Kaarenth Dissension.
