''What wouldst thou know, my Queen?''

Kamino is a stormy ocean wide planet where the clone army is made for the Galactic Republic. It is also home of the Kaminoan race. The planet has no land and was just water as Kaminoans build their homes above water and rained there all the time. Kamino was the producer of the clone army for the Galactic Republic.
Background
Description
Kamino was a remote water planet outside the main galaxy with its oceans holding an abundance of life. Kamino was renowned for its scientists and cloning technology where the Kaminoan species often contracted with private security forces and other clients. Receiving minimal trade, Kamino's imports were only enough to support the planet's population of one billion. There were many cities scattered across the surface that were built on stilts due to Kamino being covered in a great big ocean after the planet's water levels rose to higher peaks.
Kamino often experienced heavy rain and during some parts of the year was covered with heavy electrical storms. During this season, Kaminoans rode on aiwhas underwater and resurfaced once they were near their destination. The Kamioans were also isolationists, preferring to avoid interacting with other species and keep to themselves.
History
Years before the Clone Wars, Jedi Master Sifo-Dyas commissioned the Kaminoan species to create a clone army for the Galactic Republic, in response to a Force vision that saw the galaxy descending into a Galactic conflict. However, the Sith secretly took over the project where Sith apprentice, Count Dooku arranged Sifo-Dyas to be killed at the hands of the Pyke Syndicate. Dooku then selected bounty hunter Jango Fett to serve as the genetic template of the clone army. The Kaminoans modified the clones to have growth acceleration and complete obedience so they could become capable soldiers for the Republic. As payment for his services, Fett was given a young clone with no growth acceleration, at his request, and named him Boba, raising him as his own son.
