Rori
From SWG Wiki
Naboo's moon, Rori, is not very different from the main planet in climate. Rori is slightly more swampy and densely forestted than Naboo and much less populated. It is much more mysterious as well, with many areas of exploration available. Narmle is it's largest city and capital, but Rori is best known for the PvP experience at Restuss to the north.
Rori is more dangerous than Naboo, yet remains moderate. One can place facilities and homes on the planet.

A moon of Naboo, Rori is an overgrown, wild world dominated by oppressive gray skies, thick jungles, and think swamps. Unlike Naboo, Rori is not widely populated. In fact, it supports only two small colonies, which are separated by a giant, reed-infested bog.
Rori's history is somewhat contested by Naboo scholars. Some claim that a small contingent of Naboo's original human colonists actually landed on Rori before traveling on to the more temperate parent planet. If this is true, those early settlers left no obvious signs of their stay. Others hold that Rori remained unsettled until a small group of spice miners decided to relocate to the moon in search of fabled spice lodes. Some spice miners do, in fact, inhabit Rori, but they live in a primitive lifestyle and have no records of their first landing on the moon. Officially known as the Rori Spice Mining Collective, a group of honest spice miners who sell their goods to pharmaceutical companies. They often engage in turf wars with the Kobola spice miners.
Whatever the truth, Rori was officially colonized about two thousand years before the Battle of Naboo, during the short-lived reign of King Narmle. Although widely regarded as a charming and intelligent man, Narmle was a restless explorer who spent most of the time visiting distant worlds in search of new vistas. The Naboo Royal Advisory Council soon suggested that Narmle relinquish the throne and become an ambassador. Before leaving office as King, however, Narmle perosnally planned the construction of a small settlement on Rori. He envisioned that Rori would one day become an active agricultural hub, supplying food and medicines to other neighboring planets. Unfortunately, Rori attracted few settlers. Frustrated, Narmle left Rori and vanished into the Outer Rim forever, although the city he helped build still bears his name.
In the centuries since Narmle's disappearance. Rori's population has grown only slightly. During an outbreak of brainworm rot some two hundred years before the Battle of Naboo, the Advisory Council commissioned the construction of a second spaceport on Rori; this city, known as Restuss, was used for decades as a quarantined processing center for colonists traveling to Naboo. Although both Restuss and Narmle were built by Naboo architects, most of the moon's current colonists have been drawn from other, less hospitable worlds, including Iridonia and Ryloth. The Gungans, who colonized the Naboo moon of Ohma-D'un, have also established small outposts on Rori.
The Naboo rulers have typically viewed Rori as an extension of their domain. As a result, Rori does receive regular supplies from Naboo and travel between the moon and it's parent planet is routine. Members of the Naboo Royal Security Forces are stationed in both Restuss and Narmle, and Rori's governor sits on the Naboo Royal Advisory Council. The Empire also views Rori as little more than a small Naboo outpost and expects all of the moon's inhbitants to remain loyal to Emperor Palpatine. In reality, Rori's denizens are far more independent than the "planetary" Naboo and it is believed that the moon harbors some Rebels.
