==Characteristics==

It was an expansive spaceport and rested near the Dune Sea.

Mos Espa consisted of the dome-roofed, adobe buildings found in cities across [[Tatooine (Planet)|Tatooine]], and was said to appear as a great, twisting snake, hunkered down to escape the heat. Most residents were either involved in crime business with the Hutts or were poor shop keepers and moisture farmers trying to eke out a living in the inhospitable desert. The biggest retail business in Mos Espa seems to have been junk-dealing, and even small dealers like Watto the Toydarian seemed to rake in a substantial amount of money, albeit sometimes unscrupulously.

The other major activity in Mos Espa was gambling on the podraces held in the nearby grand arena.

Jabba the Hutt may have had some sort of seasonal residence in the city.

==History==

Like most [[Tatooine (Planet)|Tatooine]] settlements, it began as a mining colony. When the mining efforts failed, the dying settlement attracted the criminal Hutts, who took control and turned the city into a thriving yet dangerous spaceport.

It gained a deadly reputation for lethal podraces sponsored by the Hutts to encourage gambling. During the reign of the Hutts, the population consisted mostly of slaves, slavers and poor settlers, not including the large amount of spacers and smugglers who had a brief stay in the city before moving on to the next rock.

The town also boasted of at least two local ghost stories; the spooky and mysterious Nobot and a strange ship left deserted on the outskirts that was believed to be haunted.

Around the Trade Federation blockade of [[Naboo (Planet)|Naboo]], Padmé Amidala and her Jedi escorts arrived in Mos Espa seeking a new hyperdrive. After finding a suitable one in Watto's junk dealership, Qui-Gon made a deal with the Toydarian to exchange the parts and for freedom for his young slave boy Anakin. The deal went in Qui-Gon's favor and Anakin came with him to Coruscant, marking a pivotal moment in galactic history.

Years later when the Empire arrived on [[Tatooine (Planet)|Tatooine]], the podraces were outlawed and the city lost its illicit reputation and allure. Jabba the Hutt left for more lucrative parts unknown.
