Kalee was the home planet to the Kaleesh, including General Grievous. It was located in the Carrion sector of the Outer Rim Territories, on the border of the Kadok Regions.
History[]
The Kalee had had a long history of warfare, which led to their poverty. Circa 100 BBY, the Republic persuaded them that the neighboring Bitthævrians were threatening their border so that they could unseat a regime considered unfriendly to Coruscant. The Kaleesh fought alongside the Jedi against the Bitthævrians in the ensuing Kaleesh–Bitthævrian War. The Jedi betrayed the Kaleesh and sided with the Huks against the Kaleesh in the Huk Wars, defeating the Kaleesh. The Jedi enslaved Kalee and put Grievous and other Kaleesh under slavery. During the wars, the Kaleesh, led by General Grievous nearly defeated their enemy until he was incapacitated in a shuttle crash arranged by the InterGalactic Banking Clan. San Hill paid for a cybernetic suit to be built by the Geonosians for Grievous, who became leader of the Separatist military forces. In return for Grievous's services, the InterGalactic Banking Clan financed the economic recovery of Kalee.
