[Star Wars] Why do major events seem to start on Tatooine? Is Tatooine somehow connected to the force in some special way?

Anakin was born there, The jedi are drawn to the planet by a defective hyperdrive, they land and meet Anakin which sets the prophecy in motion. He returns there to save his mother which is a pivotal turning point in his path to the dark side. Luke is born, and he is taken to Tatooine where he will grow up. He then meets Ben, who just happens to meet Han Solo, who will also play a major role in the Rebellion. A lot of stuff seems to happen on Tatooine.

It's all really just a chain of events that begins with Anakin's birth. At least, if you believe the prophecy and all that. The Chosen One was born there, so of course he had to be found; he couldn't well be chosen if he lived in obscurity as a slave, now could he? Everything else after that is because of Anakin. If Anakin had been born on Dantooine or Nar Shadaa or wherever then *that* would have been the planet where things happened. Tatooine is really just a backwater planet where a couple of important things happened over a very brief period of Galactic History.
