A terrestrial world of hills, woodlands, and urban cityscapes, Alba-16 was discovered by Republic scouts in the centuries following the Great Hyperspace War.

Alba-16 remained a nominal Sith-controlled war until the end of the New Sith Wars in 1,000 BBY, returning to the Republic. With the rise of the Clone Wars, the planet seceded to join the CIS, only to be nominally controlled by the Imperial Remnant during the latter years of the Galactic Civil War.
