"He cut a deal with another Hutt, Gardulla. Gardulla got all slave trading, Jabba got all other illegal activities."
―Ephant Mon, aboutJabba the Hutt[1]

Acriminal empireaffiliated with theHutt Cartel was led bycrime lordJabba Desilijic Tiure and was based on thedesertplanet ofTatooine. He began his illicit operation out of hispalace on Tatooinecenturies before theonset on theClone Wars, from where he spread his operations and influence across theOuter Rim by employing a network ofsmugglers who moved his goods across the galaxy, forming a powerful criminal empire.

History[]

Creation[]

At the incredibly young age of 80, Jabba established his criminal empire on the remote desert world ofTatooine, and moved his criminal operations into an oldB'omarr Monastery.[2]

Height of power[]

"I have no wish to offend the Jedi. This would benefit no one."
―Jabba, deceiving Ki-Adi-Mundi[3]
Jabba became a notorious crime lord.

Jabba became a notorious crime lord.

On a mission,Jedi MasterKi-Adi-Mundi found evidence that linked Jabba with theTrade Federation and it preparation for itsinvasion ofNaboo, but Jabba escaped any serious retribution.[4] and continued to rule over Tatooine.[3]

Jabba had a fierce rivalry withGardulla Besadii the Elder that lasted for decades, with the two were vying for control of the planet for nearly three decades.[5]

In21 BBY,Anakin Skywalker who was betided with hisJedi apprenticeAhsoka Tano, was reluctant toreturn to Tatooine, via theTwilight to discuss allowing theGalactic Republic access over the secret Hutthyperlanes against theConfederacy of Independent Systems in excharge forrescuing his sonRotta on theTethmonastery. TheJedi Order emerged victorious at delivering Rotta to Jabba's Palace, despite sabotage fromAsajj Ventress andDooku. Thus subsequently theHutt Cartel, became an ally of the Republic, as well as theGrand Army of the Republic been allowed safe passage throughHutt Space and the Arkanis sector.[6]

Imperial Period[]

"What are you, some kind of Imperial spy? Everything we do around here is illegal. Unless you really are an Imperial spy, in which case I was kidding. No, wait, Jabba's paid off the Imperials, so it doesn't matter."
―Barada, to a spacer[7]

During theGalactic Empire's reign, theHuttgangster enjoyed an uneasy alliance with the regime, which cautiously refused to interfere much in halting his nefarious operations so as to prevent the crashing down of theOuter Rim's economy. Nonetheless,Han Solo, Jabba's bestsmuggler on his payroll, was forced to jettison a shipment ofKessel spice when theMillennium Falcon was boarded by an Imperial patrol. Wanting to gain some compensation for his lost cargo of spice, the Hutt sentbounty hunters after the runaway smuggler. After theRodianGreedo was killed by Solo, the latter spoke with Jabba atDocking Bay 94 inMos Eisley, and thecrime lord relented, giving him more time although not before reminding him what failure to deliver on his promise meant.[8]

The crime family also became locked in a gang war with theZann Consortium, that started onFelucia where the Hutt intended to sell anancient Sith artifact to the Empire.Tyber Zann sent a taskforce and wiped out Jabba mercenaries but was took into custody by the totalitarian government and sentenced to thespice mines ofKessel, where he escaped and narrowly avoided execution by abounty hunter hired by his rival. Zann would eventally make an agreement with Jabba stating that he would not make any overtures to any Hutt world but forHypori andSaleucami which would hence be his.[9]

Before theBattle of Endor, Jabba waskilled byLeia Organa at theGreat Pit of Carkoon onhisbarge duringLuke Skywalker'srescue ofHan Solo.[10]

Death of Jabba[]

"Jabba, this is your last chance. Free us, or die."
―Luke Skywalker at the Great Pit of Carkoon[10]

Following Jabba's demise, his own base of operations was reclaimed by theB'omarr Order and his empire began to collapse as its remnants were taken over by his greedy lieutenants. TheKian'tharLlleag'Mak would use intimidation and bribery to take control over pieces of Jabba's empire. The RodianRevidjasa made key alliances withZygerrian andThalassian cartels, taking over Jabba's slaving operations in theMid Rim. Revidjasa was on his way to becoming a permanent fixture in that region during the struggle between theEmpire and theNew Republic.[11]

Kumac was the quickest to act of all the Hutts, allying herself withBrasck, aBrubbmercenary formerly under the employ of Jabba, who had seized some of Jabba'ssmuggling andslaving operations in theOuter Rim Territories. With Brasck's aid, she had gained control of Jabba's leading syndicate operations in theExpansion Region within weeks of Jabba's death, with her peers still reeling from it. Kumac also called in favors from her Imperial contacts to set her up with sufficient power to fend off any major attack upon her, while Brasck set off his own smuggling operation.[11]

Kumac's old rival,Jelasi, had also performed well in the aftermath of Jabba's demise, claiming for himself theIg'zxyck Flare syndicate and attempting to "legitimize" much of Jabba's old operations, assassinating those who opposed the new direction he was taking. Kumac and her clan were enraged by this, as they wished to carry on in the same vein as Jabba, using crime and intimidation to gain more power.[11]

As it happened, though, the two emerged as the new joint leaders of the Desilijic kajidic—and, by extension, the leaders of Hutt Space, because of Desilijics' dominance—after a brutal round of infighting,[12] because they had both claimed more of Jabba's holdings than anyone else.[13]

Reclaimed by the Desilijics[]

Zorba: "I am Zorba the Hutt, the father of Jabba! I want someone to tell me where I can find my son! I was told that Hutts are no longer permitted in Jabba's palace! Who owns the palace, if not Jabba?"
Tibor: "If I were you, Zorba, I'd calm down. Have yourself a zoochberry juice."
Zorba: "I willnot calm down! I want information about Jabba! And I'll pay five gemstones to anyone who talks!"
Hissa: "You seem to be about the only creature this side of the Dune Sea who doesn't know that Jabba the Hutt is dead."
―Zorba, Tibor, and Bertroff Hissa[14]

Ayear later, Jabba'sfather came and resurrected his empire, this was due to Zorba discovering Jabba's"true will and testament", which entitled the elder Hutt to all of Jabba's holdings. Through the courts, Zorba was able to take control of the clan and wrest Kumac and Jelasi's control from their helpless hands. However, his reign was only brief and ended after a series of events included his attempted revenge against his son's killer and the will declared a forgery by the Hutt courts. Zorba was disgraced and went into hiding, thought to have died. Soon after that, Jabba'snephew began to slither in his uncle's footsteps and grow Jabba's empire farther than the Hutt himself. Thepalace of Gorga the Hutt became the new headquarters of the criminal empire.[15]

Yuuzhan Yong War[]

During theNew Republic era, it was supported byHutt Space and during theYuuzhan Vong War most of Hutt Space was devastated by the invaders, Gorga's Palace was the base of operations for theHutt Underground for one year. When the war had ended the Hutt rebellion against theYuuzhan Vong returned toNal Hutta. A year later, theGalactic Alliance had claimed authority on Tatooine, leaving a question if theDesilijicEmpire would meet a second demise.
