Fiderkha

Fiderkha was a spaceport, located in the smal oasis in the deserts of the planet of Shiib.

History
During the Jedi Civil War the Elecrians decided to expand the territory of their Kingdom, and started the consecutive operation on invading the nearby planets. Shiib was of the first to be visited by the Elecrian forces, but the Emperor Arzar Esmut ordered to establish a post in the planet before actually attacking the local settlements of Baash'Baan.

In several days a small oasis in the desert was chosen for the construction of the co-called Feedey Station, with major military complexes underground.

The base was still under construction, when the first planets began the war against Elecria, including Uthel, that sent its own people to deal with the dictatorship on Elecria. During this war many Elecrians left thei native world, and would settle down on Anarmar, Uthel, Shiib and other planets.

It was also the time, when many sentients had to leave their homes throughout the Galaxy, mainly because of the war between the Galactic Republic and the Sith. Feerkar was one of such refugees, that found Feedey Station to be a nice place to hide from the Galactic trouble.

He came to Shiib with many others, uncluding his family and friends, and became the Principal Architector of the city, that was built around the former Elecrian Military base. In the next several years it became the main spaceport on the planet.

However in 3900s BBY Baash'Baan, the second state, that existed on the planet prior to the arrival of Elecrians, claimed, that the city was under their control. This dispute was easily resolved, when the leaders of Baash'Baan learnt the exact location of the spaceport. According to their beliefs the new city was situated in the cursed lands, and they decided not to be involved in any matters, concerning the spaceport of Fiderkha.

In 31 BBY a Civil War erupted in Baash'Baan, but the citizens of Fiderkha were not the participants of this conflict. They also remained neutral, when Baash'Baan became the associate member of the Senb'An'Tiin Confederacy, and tried to avoid the issues, somehow related to the Clone Wars.

In 19 BBY the planet fell under Imperial control, though it was still controlled by the local governors. It is also known, that various Crime organizations founded their temporary bases here.
