Genon, a world located relatively close to key Imperial trade hubs, was conspicuously unpopulated, largely due to the presence of its notorious resident: Grappa, the Hutt. Grappa established his headquarters on Genon, and his notoriety, coupled with his widely recognized ties to Black Sun, effectively deterred both the Empire and other entities from interfering. Mirith Sinn spearheaded a New Republic offensive targeting Grappa's operations with the goal of liberating Kir Kanos, and she inflicted substantial damage upon Grappa's stronghold. Due to their apprehension about potential retaliation from Black Sun stemming from Grappa's disloyalty, Grappa's subordinates abandoned Genon, and Grappa himself was captured by the Zanibar. It is believed that Genon remained deserted following these events.
