Eriadu, one of the most active factory worlds in the Outer Rim Territories.

Factory worlds, also called foundry worlds, industrial worlds, or mechworlds, were planets or moons that contained massive factories or other type of industrial landmases on their surfaces. They were often rich in minerals such as iron, but from an environmental perspective were heavily polluted, where such things like acid rain were a frequent phenomenon. Nevertheless, a lot of factory worlds usually held large populations of inhabitants and economically were known as major centers of trade and manufacturing throughout the galaxy.

History

Several galactic sectors were heavily industrialized, with factory worlds spread throughout them. Most notable were the Kuat and Corellian sectors.[1] During the Galactic Civil War, the planet Balmorra was an important factory world for the Imperial Army, being the prime manufacturer of the AT-ST walker.[2]
