Kaitain was the second capital of the Corrino Empire. It had 4 moons.
History
Before the creation of the Empire, it was a major planet in the League of Nobles.[1] The planet became the capital when the Imperial Seat was moved from Salusa Secundus—Salusa Secundus having become a wasteland after the intended destruction of House Corrino by House Tantor using atomics. That planet subsequently became the Emperor's prison planet.
Above the entrance to the Great Hall in the Imperial Opal Palace in Corrinth City was the quote: "Law is the Ultimate Science."[2]
Kaitain was sacked in 10194 AG and many of the magnificent buildings in the planet's capital, Corrinth City, were destroyed. After vandalism and wanton destruction by Fremen troops, Kaitain never regained even a fraction of its former importance or glory.
