It was once the galaxy's most important planet besides Coruscant for being the sole planet where ], a plant with natural healing properties far more effective than the modern ], can be grown. Kolto harvesting and shipping is the planet's central industry. The Selkath exploit this resource financially selling it to both the ] Empire and the ] and have threatened to destroy the source of kolto should either party attack them. |

The planet features an oceanic ] course, several hotels and cantinas, both Sith and Republic embassies. It also has an underwater research station that is attacked by a giant firaxan shark that is defending the kolto and its young. It was once a member world of the ], and concealed a ] ] in its watery depths. |

During the ], ] arrived to Manaan to find a ] hidden at the ocean floor deep under Ahto City. However, in order to reach it, the player (Revan) must either poison the giant firaxa, or destroy the ] secretly built by the Republic to harvest kolto near its source. If the player chooses to poison the shark, he is banished from Manaan forever(''unless the player quickly, through dialogue options, blackmails the Manaan court, thus allowing him to stay in Manaan for the price of his silence''), because the shark is believed to be the Progenitor, the kolto's keeper and source. So, kolto is no longer available, which causes the prices of healing supplies throughout the galaxy to rise. |

|
However, the sequel, '']'', assumes that kolto is still available, leading to a conclusion that either Revan did not destroy its source or the Republic was successful in its attempts to create synthetic kolto. |

During the time of the Empire, Manaan was a wasteland. Mud covered isles and dirty rafts with savage beasts atop them were the only living things above water. They were enslaved, but ], recognizing the species, decided that they would be far better warriors. He assigned ], his apprentice, to guide the ] Order of Shasa to become more of the ]'s weapons. In the game ''Knights Of the Old Republic'', the player meets a ] young Selkath named Shasa, who is either redeemed by ] or slaughtered depending on the player's actions. It's assumed that the order was named for her. |

After Endor the Empire left Manaan. |
