A moon of Naboo, Rori is an overgrown, wild world dominated by oppressive gray skies, thick jungles, and thick swamps. Unlike Naboo, Rori is not widely populated. In fact, it supports only two small colonies, which are separated by a giant, reed-infested bog.

Rori's history is somewhat contested by Naboo scholars. Some claim that a small contingent of Naboo's original human colonists actually landed on Rori before traveling on to the more temperate parent planet. If this is true, those early settlers left no obvious signs of their stay. Others hold that Rori remained unsettled until a small group of spice miners decided to relocate to the moon in search of fabled spice lodes. Some spice miners do, in fact, inhabit Rori, but they live a primitive lifestyle and have no records of their first landing on the moon.

Whatever the truth, Rori was officially colonized about two thousand years before the Battle of Naboo, during the short-lived reign of King Narmle. Although widely regarded as a charming and intelligent man, Narmle was a restless explorer who spent most of the time visiting distant worlds in search of new vistas. The Naboo Royal Advisory Council soon suggested that Narmle relinquish the throne and become an ambassador. Before leaving office as King, however, Narmle personally planned the construction of a small settlement on Rori. He envisioned that Rori would one day become an active agricultural hub, supplying food and medicines to other neighboring planets. Unfortunately, Rori attracted few settlers. Frustrated, Narmle left Rori and vanished into the Outer Rim forever, although the city he helped build still bears his name.

In the centuries since Narmle's disappearance, Rori's population has grown only slightly. During an outbreak of brainworm rot some two hundred years before the Battle of Naboo, the Advisory Council commissioned the construction of a second spaceport on Rori; this city, known as Restuss, was used for decades as a quarantined processing center for colonists traveling to Naboo. Although both Restuss and Narmle were built by Naboo architects, most of the moon's current colonists have drawn from other, less hospitable worlds, including Irdonia and Ryloth. The Gungans, who colonized the Naboo moon of Ohma-D'un, have also established small outposts on Rori.

In recent years the Underground production Facilities for the Famous Intergalactic Trading Empire Dark troopers has become less of a secret and has greatly expanded although there is still much underground activity hat the public do not see.
