{{Quote|The Noghri had no interest in the war. But the war came to them nonetheless.|[[CC-5052/Legends|Bly]]|<ref name="Republic 68">[[Republic 68|''Republic'' 68]]</ref>}}
'''Honoghr''' {{Pronounced|'hɑnoˌgɚ}} was the homeworld of the [[Noghri/Legends|Noghri]], and the only one of the [[Honoghr system]]'s seven [[Planet/Legends|planets]] with a permanent population.

Honoghr was covered by a single globe-spanning continent.

==History==
[[File:Honoghr1.jpg|thumb|left|180px|The Clean Lands.]]
The [[Planet/Legends|planet]] was once part of the [[Rakata/Legends|Rakatan]] [[Infinite Empire]], around [[30,000 BBY]].<ref name="TEA" /> The Rakata constructed a [[Honoghr Rakatan temple|temple]] on the planet, which remained sacred to the Noghri long after the Infinite Empire's collapse.

During the waning years of the [[New Sith Wars]], there was a [[Sith Academy (Honoghr)|Sith Academy]] there,<ref name="TEA" /> which specialized in training [[Sith Warrior]]s and [[Sith Marauder|Marauders]].

===Destruction===
{{Quote|And then, when finally we dared to hope it was over, the strange-smelling rain began to fall.|[[Unidentified maitrakh|''Maitrakh'']] [[Clan Kihm'bar]]|<ref name="DFR">''[[Dark Force Rising]]''</ref>}}
In [[20 BBY/Legends|20 BBY]], during the [[Clone Wars/Legends|Clone Wars]], the non-aligned planet became an ecological disaster when, after a [[Battle of Honoghr|battle in orbit]], a [[Gahenna|''Lucrehulk''-class Core Ship]] crashed to the surface. The [[Galactic Republic/Legends|Galactic Republic]] took great interest in the accident due to the [[Confederacy of Independent Systems/Legends|Separatist]] ship's cargo: the toxin [[Trihexalophine1138]]. As the contaminant spread, it ravaged the planet and desiccated most of its flora. Over the next few [[Standard month/Legends|months]], plains and jungles died, forcing the Noghri to trek across the planet in a mass exodus, searching for a place where they could survive.

[[File:Honoghr_TEA.jpg|thumb|left|180px|Honoghr after the cataclysm.]]
Within weeks of the end of the war, [[Anakin Skywalker/Legends|Darth Vader]] arrived at Honoghr, and promptly found his [[Stormtrooper/Legends|stormtrooper]] guards slaughtered around him by the natives&mdash;with nothing more than primitive bladed weapons&mdash;impressing the Dark Lord greatly. In exchange for the [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Galactic Empire]] working to restore the planet's ecosystem, the Noghri gave homage to Vader and pledged to serve him as assassins&mdash;the Death Commandos. In reality, the Imperial restoration teams deliberately kept Honoghr poisoned using a [[Kholm-grass|hybrid grass]] that killed off the remaining plant life, thus keeping the Noghri bound in the service of the Empire. The planet had also been used as a training ground for Vader's secret apprentices of [[Galen Marek]] (codenamed Starkiller) and [[Tao (Jedi)|Tao]], as well as for [[Ennix Devian]], which involved dropping them onto the planet unarmed and having to evade and defeat a Noghri hunting party.

Not long before the [[Battle of Yavin/Legends|Battle of Yavin]] a [[Zann Consortium/Legends|Zann Consortium]] ground force led by [[Urai Fen]] [[Skirmish on Honoghr|arrived]] on Honoghr, to kill Commander [[Malinth]] and intimidate the Noghri. The Noghri helped the Empire to try to repel the invaders, but were ultimately beaten and their dwellings destroyed. Malinth was killed and the Noghri proved unable to defeat them.<ref name="FoC">''[[Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption]]''</ref>

Later, during the [[Thrawn campaign|Thrawn crisis]] in [[9 ABY/Legends|9 ABY]], [[Leia Organa Solo]] [[Mission to Honoghr|arrived]] at Honoghr and, using her position as the daughter and heir of Darth Vader and having discovered the Empire's trickery, persuaded the Noghri to relinquish their allegiance to the Empire.<ref name="DFR" /> The Noghri were [[Noghri revolution|freed]] from their [[Slavery/Legends|enslavement]] and became members of the [[New Republic/Legends|New Republic]] and its successor government the [[Galactic Federation of Free Alliances|Galactic Alliance]]. The Noghri were represented in the [[New Republic Senate/Legends|New Republic Senate]] by [[Kahr'corvh]] of [[Clan Kihm'bar]].

Leia and her entire family also became very highly respected figures in Noghri society. The New Republic helped resettle the Noghri to other planets, including [[Wayland]], to give Honoghr [[Time/Legends|time]] to heal.

The world was invaded by the [[Yuuzhan Vong]] during their [[Yuuzhan Vong War|assault]] on the galaxy.<ref name="TEA" />

==Behind the scenes==
It should be noted that, while the Battle of Honoghr took place in 20 BBY, the [[Unidentified maitrakh|''maitrakh'']] of Clan Kihm'bar tells Leia that the planet was devastated 48 Honoghr years ago, or 44 [[Galactic Standard Calendar|standard]] years ago. Taking into account that Leia visited in 9 ABY, this piece of information implies it happened around [[35 BBY/Legends|35 BBY]]. [[The Essential Guide to Alien Species (real-world book)|''The Essential Guide to Alien Species'']] retconned this by saying that the year on Honoghr is shorter than usual time on other planets. However, in ''[[Dark Force Rising]]'', the ''maitrakh'' states "Forty-eight Noghri years. In years of the Emperor, forty-four," indicating the ''maitrakh'' already understood that there was a differential between Honoghr years and that of Galactic standard.
