Balmorra is the first planet of the Nevoota system, situated in the region of space known as the Colonies. Not long after the world's initial colonization Balmorra became a center for weapons and droid manufacture and research. It's this history that has prompted the Sith Empire to attempt to claim the planet as its own. Balmorra's level bracket is 32-36 for the Republic, and 16-20 for the Empire.

History 
Edit
Balmorra has long been the center of manufacturing of advanced weapons and droids in the galaxy. This, combined with the planet's location near the Core Worlds, made it an overwhelmingly appealing target for conquest by the Sith Empire.
Balmora was an ally of the Galactic Republic. When the inevitable Sith occupation force arrived, the Republic responded by dispatching soldiers to assist in the planet's defense. However, with its military forces stretched ever thinner by the Great Galactic War, over time the Republic was forced to abandon its campaign to help expel the Empire. The Empire began to take more and more territory on Balmorra, with only a few Republic troops preventing total conquest.
Following the signing of the Treaty of Coruscant, the Republic was forced to withdraw all of its troops off Balmorra, leaving the locals to fend for themselves. Though the Sith completed their conquest, the people of Balmora formed a resistance movement to fight the Imperial occupation. It would be years before the Republic once again sent soldiers (secretly, of course) in support of the now Sith-controlled world. By the time Republic forces returned, the Balmorans had come to resent the Republic due to its apparent willingness to abandon them in their world's time of need.
Resources Edit
Balmorra has a moderate supply of gatherable resources such as bronzium, aluminum, nextar, erlam, and others. (Table of resources comming soon)
