These two species have struggled to claim the planet. The Mon Calamari live comfortably on the surface and below although the Quarren live in the depths of the oceans. The planet looks like a blue marble from space because of its ocean-covered surface. The cities are like those of Kamino.
During the Clone Wars, the world was attacked twice by the Confederacy of Independent Systems. First, Count Dooku devastated the world with the Dark Reaper. Later, the Quarren Isolation League attempted to overthrow the Mon Calamari Council.
The Mon Calamari Cruiser, the main cruisers of Rebel Alliance/New Republic are build in Mon Calamari. An example of these ships are the great Home One, used by the Rebel Alliance in the Battle of Endor.
Durring the reborn Emperor's reign of terror, Mon Calamari was attacked by a fleet of World Devastators and only barely survived.
During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, Mon Calamari was the capitol of the Galactic Alliance, and was attacked by the Yuuzhan Vong but did not fall.
