Hitaka, a planet known for its farming, existed within the Cademimu sector found in the Outer Rim Territories, showcasing vibrant forests and towering mountains across its terrain.
In the era of the Clone Wars, Darth Tyranus received orders from his master, the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious, to undertake a mission on Hitaka, where he was sent. To facilitate his apprentice's clandestine operations, Sidious orchestrated a conflict involving the Grand Army of the Republic on the planet as a diversion.
