Kiros was an idyllic world filled with vast green valleys and flowing waterfalls[2] located in the Kiros system in the the galaxy's Expansion Region. Located in the Ehosiq sector[1] like Shili,[5] the homeworld of the Togruta species,[6] Kiros was home host to 50,000 Togruta colonists. The planet was ruled by Governor Gupat Roshti, who was contacted by Master Yoda just prior to the Separatist conquest of Kiros during the Clone Wars.[2]
Count Dooku approached the Governor of the world to allow the Separatists to move the population to a secure location while they established a base there. Obi-Wan Kenobi, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, and Clone Captain Rex later fought a battle on Kiros, where they liberated the planet, but discovered that the entire population had been taken by slavers.[2] After a battle at Kadavo had ended and the Zygerrian slave processing facility was destroyed, the former captives were returned to Kiros, to rebuild their society.[7]
Behind the scenes
Kiros first appeared in the episode "Kidnapped," the eleventh episode of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series' fourth season.[2]
