Calimondretta, a city fashioned from the icy landscape of the frozen planet Syned, was situated within the Grumani sector. This settlement was under the dominion of the Arkadianate, a Sith nation governed by the Sith Lord known as Arkadia Calimondra. In 1032 BBY, the Siege of Calimondretta resulted in significant destruction to the city when Jedi Knight Kerra Holt, Brigadier Jarrow Rusher, and the Bothan spy Narsk Ka'hane attempted to flee. Amidst this turmoil, five hundred citizens of the Arkadianate abandoned Arkadia, seeking sanctuary on the vessel named the Diligence.
