- "Mandalore should not need to pay smugglers to feed its people."
"It's not that we want to deal with smugglers—we have no alternative! I'm sure you and the Trade Federation make a profit whether our business is legitimate or not."
"I resent that!" - ―The New Mandalorian Minister of Finance arguing with Armatan
Armatan was a Human male who served as the Minister of the Interior for the New Mandalorians and, later, the Prime Minister of Mandalore during the Clone Wars, replacing the disgraced Almec.
Biography
A Human male, Armatan served as a member of the Ruling Council, a council of officials charged with governing the New Mandalorians. He and the other ministers were present in the New Mandalorian capital city of Sundari around 22 BBY to discuss the problem of closed trade routes and their reliance on the corrupt black market as a result of the raging war.
Following the ouster of Prime Minister Almec, who had engineered a black market crisis, Armatan took over as Prime Minister. When Darth Maul and his Shadow Collective took over Sundari, Armatan was replaced as Prime Minister by Pre Vizsla.
Former Duchess Satine Kryze later revealed that all her supporters had either sided with Vizsla or had been killed.
