The so-called "Dark Worlds" was an Unknown Regions principality, located at the furthest reaches of the galaxy, which the genetic terrorist Zeta Magnus had claimed as his personal kingdom. Magnus carved out his kingdom using the followers and slaves he had gathered during his journey around the galaxy. It was composed of a group of planets ruled by Magnus, who considered the Chiss Ascendancy, the Ssi-ruuvi Imperium, the Vagaari, an Ebruchi clan, and the Rhandite nihilists as his neighbours. The terrorist's seat of power was the Rennek palace, deep within the "Dark Worlds." At some point in time before the Clone Wars, the Rhandite nihilists would "bless" these worlds.[1]

Behind the scenes

"Atha Prime, genetics master, ruler of the dark worlds [...]"
―Kenner 1985-86 Line Extension Presentation Binder[3]

Reference to "dark worlds", lower-case, first appeared in Kenner's aborted 1986 "The Epic Continues" product line[3] but the worlds were not canonized until the release of SkyeWalkers: A Clone Wars Story in 2015 in which they were capitalized as "Dark Worlds".[1]
