' It's an entire world of pirates and outlaws.' ―Luke Skywalker īy the time of the Galactic Civil War, Nar Shaddaa had a reputation as a haven for pirates and outlaws. Some known locations on Nar Shaddaa including the Palace of Grakkus the Hutt, which hosted a gladiatorial arena, a seedy bar owned by an unscrupulous Zabrak bartender, and Wormstew Town hospital.

Other settlements included Wormstew Town, and the Corellian Sector. The capital of Nar Shaddaa was Hutta Town, which was made up of huge tower blocks with a patchwork of shanty town structures called skyslums filling every available space between the towers. An ecumenopolis, its surface was covered entirely in urban sprawl.

Nar Shaddaa was the largest moon of the planet Nal Hutta, which was located in the Hutt Space region of the Outer Rim Territories.
