Manaan is a fictional planet in the Star Wars universe. It was last seen in the 2003 videogame Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. The planet is completely covered in water, except for Ahto City, a large city made by the Selkath, the native species on Manaan. It is the sole planet where kolto, a plant with natural healing properties, is found; kolto harvesting and shipping is the planet's central industry. The Selkath exploit this resource to ensure their safety from both the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic, who are unable to attack the planet for fear of damaging the kolto. The planet features an oceanic swoop-racing course, several hotels and cantinas, both Sith and Republic embassies and an underwater research station guarded by a giant mutant shark. It was once a member world of the Infinite Empire, and concealed a Rakatan Star Map in its watery depths.
