During the time of the Third Alsakan Conflict, specifically in the year 14,300 BBY, a battle took place on the planet called Raxus Prime. The combatants involved were the Machinists of Nikato and their adversaries, the Duros Red Credit Brigade.
In this engagement, the Duros Red Credit Brigade was overcome by the Machinists of Nikato. As a result of this triumph, the Machinists of Nikato went on to create a small, self-governed territory referred to as the Nikato's Bootheel. Subsequently, Raxus Prime rose to prominence as the core world within this territory, experiencing a period of cultural and economic flourishing.
