• It has been said that the world of Bimmisaari specializes in "fur and moving plants." Waving trees cover the world's surface, constantly swaying even when no wind blows. In fact, these asaari trees can move their leafy branches of their own accord, though their roots are firmly anchored in the planet's soil.
  The planet's intelligent inhabitants, beings who call themselves Bimms, are governed by a planetary council. Members of the council are referred to as Law Elders. The planetary council meets in the Tower of Law, a fairly modest building connected to a somewhat taller marketplace. The Tower of Law was built on its spot because the area was already a common crossroad. The tower rooms are filled with wall-size tapestries decorated with scenes from the Bimms' favorite stories. The upper levels of the tower have been turned into a museum of sorts, and items dating back to the middle era of the Old Republic can be found there.
  The marketplace is a three-level dome without sides and just a hint of a roof. The design reflects the Bimms' preference to be in the open air as much as possible. The roof can be extended to cover the dome framework when the weather turns bad. The marketplace has existed in one form or another for more than two hundred years.
  Bimms love to shop and haggle, and the marketplace is always crowded with a sea of yellow-clad beings. Since the Battle of Endor, the planet has also become a favorite stopover for shoppers from all over the galaxy. Now that it has become a major center of trade, the New Republic is determined to set up relations and even an alliance with the world. The council of Bimmisaari is just now opening negotiations to join the New Republic. The planet had been a nominal member of the Old Republic, but it withdrew when the galactic government became too corrupt for the Bimms' tastes. Luckily, the planet was far from the Core and its people were considered mostly useless, and therefore left alone by the Empire. Except for a few occasions, the Bimms escaped the horrors and tyranny inflicted on the rest of the galaxy.
  During a diplomatic mission to Bimmisaari, Princess Leia Organa Solo and her party were ambushed by an unknown species of attackers who were later identified.
