Mayoh was the planetary capital city of Gravalax.[1a]

The city was noted for its unusual architectural style by Imperial standards, with many wide streets and buildings that lacked any right angles; this was due to the influence of the T'au, who established diplomatic contact with the planet with a view to its annexation.[1a]

One of the more affluent regions of the city was referred to as "The Heights", due to its elevation from being built on a set of hills. The Heights were a hotbed of open t'au sympathisers and there were a number of clashes between them and Imperial loyalists.[1a] Contrasting the Heights was the Old Quarter, the location of the Planetary Governor's palace, which had largely rejected the t'au influence.[1b]

Mayoh also hosted one of the planet's primary spaceports, located approximately ten kilometres outside the city.[1a]
