In the system of the same name, the planet is located in the Atrivis sector in the Outer Rim. Mantooine's government treats spice smuggling as a capitol offense. Years ago, a group of Mantooine freedom fighters called the Liberators were massacred by the Empire when they took refuge in a captured Imperial base. That incident was one of several that helped build a unified Rebel Alliance, because if there had been communication with other groups of freedom fighters, the Liberators could have been warned of the strike and taken refuge elsewhere. In a separate incident, the self-sacrifice of probe droid D-127X may have saved Mantooine from an Imperial suprise attack.

Get the Mantooine mug.A guy who is used by a girl though he knows it, yet keeps coming back to her despite all the crap she puts him through. The guy is invariably in love/lust with the girl and will go through hoops/put up with her back and forth in the offchance that he might be able to date her. These situations usually result in the man being crushed.
Sometimes the guy can delude himself into thinking he just wants to be good friends with her. This does not last long.

Guy 1: What did you do this weekend?
Guy 2: Oh it was awesome, Cara actually came over last night. She was having a tiff with her boyfriend. I made her a great dinner and we talked and cuddled a little bit. Then she left abruptly, maybe got a text from him. But I haven't heard from her since then.
Guy 1: This isn't going anywhere is it?
Guy 2: Well, I think she'll eventually see I'm a good guy and we work well together.
Guy 1: <rolls eyes>
