Characteristics

A colony of Naboo intelligentsia protected by dense swamplands, Moenia is a mecca for Naboo's educated elite. The city boasts Naboo's highest concentration of successful authors, artists and musicians. It has also been the training ground for many of Naboo's elected officials and includes some of the galaxy's most respected universities.

The Empire views Moenia as little more than an artist's retreat and virtually ignores all activities in the city. This has allowed the formation of a small but influential group of political idealists sympathetic to the Rebellion. Publicly, Moenia's leadership may support the Empire, but they surreptitiously fund Alliance activities, welcome refugess from worlds under Imperial siege, and arrange meetings between Rebel agents and powerful political figures from throughout the galaxy. While it's unlikely thta the peaceful residents of Moenia would ever take up arms against the Empire, their underground support of the Alliance could prove a valuable asset.

Moenia City, surrounded by some of Naboo's thickest swamps and marshes, is a retreat and home for some of the galaxy's greatest thinkers, artists, and educators. Its universities are famed throughout the galaxy. The Empire looks at the town and its inhabitants as an eccentric, yet harmless group of thinkers. While this is true for the most part, the lack of attention from the Empire has allowed the Rebel Alliance to hold a stronger presence in Moenia City than is possible elsewhere on Naboo.
