Regalia system
The Regalia system was a star system located within the Meram sector of the Outer Rim Territories.[1]
The system was home to Regalia Sub-space station-12,[2] a space station manned by eminent director mOKDAR 15, who kept copious amounts of video journals at the station with the intent of broadcasting them over a subspace transceiver medium.[3]
Behind the scenes
"Regalia" was first mentioned in a segment named "The Seminar Participants," written by Bob Carrau for the 1993 book Monsters and Aliens from George Lucas, a publication that combines creature designs and photographs from various projects of George Lucas, creator of the Star Wars franchise, with original text by Carrau.[3] Lucasfilm employee Leland Chee, who maintains the Holocron continuity database, has indicated that information contained in the book is non-canonical.[4] The publication did not, however, specify what exactly was Regalia.[3]
The location was identified as a system in The Essential Atlas, a third-generation Essential Guide written by Jason Fry and Daniel Wallace and published by Del Rey in August 2009.[5] The book placed the system in the Outer Rim Territories, within the Meram sector.[6] The Regalia system was later added to Star Wars: The Essential Atlas Online Companion, a web-exclusive series of articles intended to serve as dynamic supplement for The Essential Atlas.[5]
Fry has stated that "planets not assigned a system in [a] published source can be assumed to reside in [the] system of [the] same name."[7] This article assumes the same applies for Regalia Sub-space station-12.
