- "I used to swim in the icy crystal streams near my village."
"In the mountains?"
"Yes." - ―Padmé Amidala and Ian Lago
A small village was founded in the mountain ranges of Naboo in the few last decades of the Galactic Republic. Ruwee of the House Naberrie and his wife Jobal greatly helped establish that settlement, supervising both the physical construction of the village and the formation of its community.[3] However, the couple eventually decided to leave their beloved mountains for the capital city of Theed in order to give a chance at a higher education to their young daughters, Sola and Padmé, both born in the village.[4] When Padmé became Queen of Naboo, she retained only one tradition from her native village, her white thumbnail polish.[1]
A rare and beautiful species of flower grew near this village. It bloomed only once every eighty-eight years, heralding a time of special celebration.[1] While obviously rocky, this region did not feature any waterfalls, as Padmé had never seen one before visiting Theed for the first time.[5] However, several icy and clear streams flowed in the vicinity of the village, and the young Padmé enjoyed swimming in them.[2]
