Bandalong was the chief city on Tleilax, the prime world of the Bene Tleilax, and was built and established in 174 BG. Entrance was forbidden to outsiders, and the explanation was that the majority of the city was considered holy and 'religious' by the Tleilaxu.
History
During the Butlerian Jihad it housed slaves, from which they stole their vital organs with the blessings of Grand Patriarch Iblis Ginjo. Xavier Harkonnen discovered this and the Tleilaxu were condemned.
Ten thousands years later during the time of the Ascension of House Atreides, Bandalong was the site of the failed Tleilaxu attempt to create their version of the Kwisatz Haderach, in a perfectly formed human named Thallo. Bandalong was the site of a great deal of infrastructure and precise urban planning, as the mad Thallo was almost successful in killing all of Bandalong's inhabitants, as he had gone insane.
Thousands of years later, one sees that the city only came alive at the command of the Master of Masters Tylwyth Waff, who heralded the dawn with the cry of the Abdl, "The Sun is not God".
The Masters of the Bene Tleilax order convened on Bandalong in ghufran of kehl to further their plan for Bodal - the ultimate revenge - and a rise to power, after the decline of God-Emperor Leto Atreides II - whom they called God's Messenger - though this ascension never occurred. Bandalong, along with many Tleilaxu Masters within the city, was almost completely destroyed in an attack by the Honored Matres.
Later the rebel Honored Matre Hellica used the city as the base of her operations against the unified New Sisterhood led by Murbella. Hellica led the rebel faction in a battle to destroy the planet Richese, and its' starship producing orbital dockyards. In severe retaliation, Murbella then attacked Tleilax and laid waste to Bandalong, destroying most of the remainder of its buildings and infrastructure.
It was then revealed that Hellica was in fact, an Enhanced Face Dancer, and had been leading the rebel Matre faction astray for years, in subservience to Khrone, their Face Dancer leader.
It is not known if Bandalong was ever inhabited again, as the ghola of Scytale as the end of Kralizec, decided to re-establish the Tleilaxu on the Thinking Machine world of Synchrony.
