Hitaka was a farming planet located in the Cademimu sector of the Outer Rim Territories, with a lush landscape of forests and mountains.
During the Clone Wars, Darth Tyranus was sent by the Dark Lord of the Sith Darth Sidious to Hitaka to complete a task. Sidious then arranged for the Grand Army of the Republic to engage in a battle on the planet to make it easier for his apprentice to move about unnoticed.
