Bollin, the most ancient of the platform city settlements on Cularin, exhibited its great age through obsolete technology, a sparse populace, and decaying structures. The city's economy was primarily based upon the exportation of Cularin's unique and rare timber. Of all the platform cities, Bollin maintained the strongest ties with the Tarasin. In fact, as of 31 BBY, its baron administrator was a Tarasin named Ta'Shal. Bollin was also home to the Bollin Exotic Animal Emporium, a zoo that housed the sole known captive rancor within the entire Cularin system.
