10 | Taris is a highly populated world that was once considered the “Capital of the Outer Rim” by travelers. |
15 | An ecumenopolis, the city of Taris covers the entire surface of the planet, similar to Coruscant and Nar Shaddaa. |
20 | Taris sees an economic boom in the years leading up to the Great Sith War, thanks in part to the support of speeder manufacturer Lhosan Industries. During the Mandalorian Wars, Lhosan withdraws its support from Taris, and the planet’s prosperity decays rapidly. |
25 | Like other city-planets, Taris is divided into multiple city layers, as well as districts. Inhabitants of the Upper City maintain a luxurious lifestyle, but those in the Lower City and the Undercity live without comforts. |
30 | The Undercity of Taris is infested with rakghouls, a species of mutated, feral humanoids, who plague the planet’s less fortunate inhabitants. |
