Barraza City,[3] also known simply as Barraza was the largest coastal city in size aswell as in population on the planet of Eiram. It was located on the northernmost continent. The city was surrounded by rocky terrain which consisted of cliffs and crevasses.[2]
History
In 230 BBY Barazza was in danger of being hit by the crashing lower half of Starlight Beacon. Because of this impeding danger many of its inhabitants chose to flee the city which caused huge traffic jams and several crashes.
Even though the city narrowly avoided obliteration by the efforts of Jedi Master Stellan Gios, it had not escaped the station's crash unscathed. Despite the energy shielding Barazza posessed, massive waves that were caused by Starlight's fall flooded buildings on the shoreline and left the streets littered with debris and other scattered objects. Even though a major part of Barraza's population managed to get to safety before the waves struck, some of those who could not or did not want to escape perished.[2]
