Kynachi, a planet located in the distant Wild Space region, functioned as the headquarters for KynachTech Industries. The Trade Federation forcibly occupied the world in 32 BBY, and the Skakoan Overseer named Umbrag then assumed control of the KynachTech factory, while also implementing a planetary frequency jammer. The rest of the galaxy assumed that the planet had willingly cut itself off from the outside world due to its remote location. In 21 BBY, the Galactic Republic's self-described Breakout Squad unit liberated the planet's imprisoned population from the KynachTech factory prison.
