Geonosis

Located in the Outer-Rim region, its grid co-ordinates are R-16. Its rotation period is 30 standard hours, with a 256 local day orbital period. It has a breathable atmosphere but the climate, while temperate, is quite Arid. The surface looks barren, with no cities visable on the surface as the Geonosians had been driven underground by the planets massive sandstorms. It is alligned with the CIS, becoming its first capital, and houses two major droid factories.
