Before the 400 Year Darkness, Vanarin was one of the most populated planets in the outer rim, not quite Coruscant, but between 1000 BBY and 100 BBY, it was slowly becoming engulfed by massive cities. During this time period, the prospering of Vanarin was part of an effort by the Jedi to help rebuild worlds in the outer rim that had suffered during the New Sith Wars. While this was very successful on Vanarin and nearby planets like Elom, Fether, and Desevro, Progress halted and slightly regressed after the rise of the 1st Galactic Empire. However, Vanarin, as well as Elom and Desevro, endured. The planet prospered for 400 years after the defeat of the 1st Galactic Empire. However, despite it's proximity to the core, some travellers who carried the Gulag Virus unknowingly arrived and the planet was utterly ruined by the virus in 435 ABY. The entire populous was either killed or forced to leave. In recent years, a group known as "The Falcons" have begun to reinhabit the planet and are trying to bring it back to it's former glory. The now mostly dead planet is north of Elom and east of Fether.
