The Highlands, situated on the world of Aldhani, once held a significant population. Prior to the Galactic Empire's takeover of Aldhani, it is estimated that 40,000 Dhanis inhabited the entirety of the Highlands region. However, roughly ten years later, specifically by 5 BBY, the Empire forcibly removed all Dhanis residing in the Highlands, re-settling them within the designated Enterprise Zone located in the Lowlands. Despite this forced relocation, a small number of shepherds, alongside those devoted to nature, spiritual individuals, and those refusing to leave, continued to reside in the Highlands.
