{{Quote|Mandalore must remain a neutral system!|[[Duke/Legends|Duchess]] [[Satine Kryze/Legends|Satine Kryze]]|<ref name="DoM">{{TCW|Duchess of Mandalore}}</ref>}}
The '''Mandalore system''' was a [[Star system/Legends|star system]] located within the [[Mandalore sector/Legends|Mandalore sector]] of [[The galaxy/Legends|the galaxy's]] [[Outer Rim Territories/Legends|Outer Rim Territories]]. Positioned in the galactic north-east, the Mandalore system was comprised of nine [[Planet/Legends|planets]]—[[Nog]], [[Akaan]], [[Tracyn]], [[Kalevala/Legends|Kalevala]], [[Mandalore/Legends|Mandalore]], [[Mandallia]], [[Bonagal]], [[Shukut/Legends|Shukut]], and [[Werda]]—and their numerous [[Moon/Legends|moons]], all [[Orbit/Legends|orbiting]] the [[Star/Legends|star]] [[Mandalore (star)/Legends|Mandalore]].

Though the [[Mandallian Giant]]s were originally the system's only [[Sentience/Legends|sentient]] inhabitants, the Mandalore system gained its name and notoriety from the [[Mandalorian/Legends|Mandalorian]] [[Taung/Legends|Taung]], who arrived from [[Roon/Legends|Roon]] to conquer not only the system, but the entire [[Sector/Legends|sector]] of surrounding [[Realspace/Legends|space]]. From that point in [[Time/Legends|time]] onward, the Mandalore system became a powerbase for the Mandalorian [[Soldier/Legends|warrior]] culture. In [[738 BBY]], the system bore the brunt of a [[Galactic Republic/Legends|Galactic Republic]] [[Mandalorian Excision|assault]] that left Mandalore and portions of the surrounding sector heavily damaged. From this disaster arose the pacifistic [[New Mandalorians/Legends|New Mandalorian]] faction, who established a presence on at least two of the system's worlds, Mandalore and Kalevala. Several hundred [[Standard year/Legends|years]] later, in [[4 ABY/Legends|4 ABY]], the Mandalore system came under attack by the [[Nagai]] people, who launched assaults on both [[Battle of Mandalore (Nagai invasion)|Mandalore]] and [[Battle of Mandallia|Mandallia]]. The Mandalorians were able to repel the Nagai, and later the [[Battle of Mandalore (Yuuzhan Vong War)|attacks]] of the [[Yuuzhan Vong galaxy|extra-galactic]] [[Yuuzhan Vong]], before entering a period of economic resurgence after discovering a large lode of [[Mandalorian iron|''beskar'']] [[Iron/Legends|iron]] on Mandalore.

==Description==
{{Quote|The planets and moons of the Mandalore system are rich in ''beskar'', or Mandalorian iron. According to legend, this boon brought the ''[Taung]'' Progenitors to our world.|[[Tor Vizsla]]|<ref name="TBHC">''[[The Bounty Hunter Code: From the Files of Boba Fett]]''</ref>}}
The Mandalore [[Star system/Legends|system]] was one of several [[Star/Legends|star]] systems that comprised the [[Mandalore sector/Legends|Mandalore sector]]. The Mandalore system was located within the [[Outer Rim Territories/Legends|Outer Rim Territories]], in the north-east region of the [[The galaxy/Legends|galactic]] plane. Centered around the cognominal star, [[Mandalore (star)/Legends|Mandalore]], the Mandalore system consisted of nine [[Planet/Legends|planets]] and their combined total of seventy-three [[Moon/Legends|moons]]. Of the system's nine worlds, [[Nog]], [[Akaan]], [[Tracyn]], [[Kalevala/Legends|Kalevala]], [[Mandalore/Legends|Mandalore]], and [[Mandallia]] were terrestrial, [[Bonagal]] and [[Shukut/Legends|Shukut]] were large [[Gas giant/Legends|gas giants]], and [[Werda]] was an [[Water/Legends|ice ball]] planet located farthest from the system's sun.<ref name="TEA" /> It was said that the worlds of the Mandalore system were rich in [[Mandalorian iron|''beskar'']] [[Iron/Legends|iron]] [[ore]].<ref name="TBHC" />

==History==
[[File:Mandalorians_-_TEA.jpg|thumb|left|250px|The [[Mandalorian/Legends|Mandalorians]], conquerors of the Mandalore system]]
Long [[Pre-Republic era|before]] the establishment of the [[Galactic Republic/Legends|Galactic Republic]], the then nameless Mandalore sector<ref name="TEA" /> had given rise to a single [[Sentience/Legends|sentient]] [[Species/Legends|species]], the [[Mandallian Giant]]s of Mandallia.<ref name="HotM" /> However, when the [[Taung/Legends|Taung]]—[[Primate|simian]] [[Humanoid/Legends|Humanoid]] [[Soldier/Legends|warriors]] from the galactic [[Core Worlds/Legends|Core World]] of [[Coruscant/Legends|Coruscant]]<ref name="GaW">''[[Galaxy at War]]''</ref>—were forced to flee their [[Homeworld/Legends|homeworld]] by the [[Human/Legends|Human]] [[Battalion/Legends|Battalions]] of [[Zhell/Legends|Zhell]], they eventually found their way to the uninhabited world in the would-be Mandalore system that they came to call Mandalore, in honor of their [[Mandalore (title)|leader]], [[Mandalore the First]].<ref name="TEA" /> The Taung also chose to recast themselves as the [[Mandalorian/Legends|Mandalorians]],<ref name="GaW" /> or ''Mando'ade'' in their [[Language/Legends|language]], meaning "Children of Mandalore."<ref name="TZ">''[[Republic Commando: Triple Zero]]''</ref> Once these warrior nomads had settled their new home and slaughtered the native [[Mythosaur/Legends|mythosaurs]] that had previously dominated the planet, the Mandalorian Taung set out to conquer the worlds in the surrounding system.<ref name="TEA" /> Their only resistance came from the neighboring Mandallians. These powerful warriors withstood the Mandalorians' assault, earning the respect of their attackers in the process. Because of their prowess, the Mandallians became among the first to fight alongside the Taung and gain equal acceptance in the Mandalorian culture.<ref name="HotM" />

As Mandalorian-controlled [[Realspace/Legends|space]] grew, the Mandalore system and the planet Mandalore itself were left largely idle as the [[Mandalorian Crusaders]] sought new conquests under [[Mandalore the Indomitable]]. During the Crusaders' campaign, Mandalore was joined by other star systems such as the [[Concord Dawn system/Legends|Concord Dawn system]], the [[Ordo system]], and the [[Vorpa'ya system]], as the Mandalore sector began to take form. Nevertheless, [[Keldabe/Legends|Keldabe]]—[[Capital/Legends|capital]] [[City/Legends|city]] of the planet Mandalore—became the acting center of government for much of Mandalorian space from at least [[3960 BBY]] onward.<ref name="TEA" /> The Mandalorians' conquest reached its height during the [[Mandalorian Wars]], an all-out Mandalorian attack against the [[Galactic Republic/Legends|Galactic Republic]] initiated by [[Mandalore the Ultimate]]. When the wars were brought to a devastating conclusion and Mandalore the Ultimate was slain by the [[Jedi Knight/Legends|Jedi Knight]] [[Revan/Legends|Revan]], many Mandalorian [[Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders/Legends|warriors]] returned to Mandalore and its system.<ref name="NEC">''[[The New Essential Chronology]]''</ref>

[[File:Vizsla_welcomes_Satine.png|thumb|right|275px|The [[New Mandalorians/Legends|New Mandalorians]] established themselves on two of the system's worlds, Mandalore and Kalevala.]]
In the aftermath of the Republic's [[Seventh Battle of Ruusan|victory]] over the [[Brotherhood of Darkness/Legends|Brotherhood of Darkness]] at [[Ruusan/Legends|Ruusan]], and the subsequent Republic [[Ruusan Reformation|reformation]] that marked the end of the [[New Sith Wars]], Mandalorians inhabiting Mandalore elected to remake their society into a more rigid, technologically adept, militant one. The growth in Mandalore's militancy so soon after the war with the [[Sith/Legends|Sith]] alarmed both the Republic and [[Jedi/Legends|Jedi]] alike, and unwilling to suffer through a second Mandalorian War,<ref name="TEA" /> the Jedi led a Republic strike force in a brief and targeted [[Mandalorian Excision|conflict]] with the Mandalorians in [[738 BBY]] that brought devastation to the Mandalore sector<ref name="TEGW">''[[The Essential Guide to Warfare]]''</ref> and transformed parts of Mandalore into [[Desert/Legends|deserts]] of [[white]] sand.<ref name="NewBattlefronts">''[[Star Wars: The Clone Wars: New Battlefronts: The Visual Guide]]''</ref> Out of this disaster arose a pacifist sect calling themselves the [[New Mandalorians/Legends|New Mandalorians]]; the reformist [[Politics/Legends|political]] faction renounced violence and instead preached peace, neutrality, and tolerance. They used their talents as builders and inventors to create grand [[Bio-cube/Legends|bio-cube]] cities in Mandalore's desert, forging a new society isolated from Mandalore's warrior clans.<ref name="TEA" /><ref name="NewBattlefronts" /> To the New Mandalorians, Mandalore was known as "New Mandalore",<ref>''[[Star Wars: The Clone Wars Comic UK 6.20]]''</ref> and the peaceful group also moved to establish themselves on the nearby world of Kalevala. Noble titles such as [[Prince/Legends|prince]] and [[Duke/Legends|duchess]] were instituted on Kalevala, and the New Mandalorians retained a presence on both worlds in the Mandalore system for centuries after.<ref name="NewBattlefronts" />

Around [[60 BBY/Legends|60 BBY]],<ref name="NEC" /> not long after the ascension of [[Jaster Mereel]] as ''Mand'alor'', the [[Mandalorian Civil War (True Mandalorians)|Mandalorian Civil War]] broke out between Mereel's loyalist [[True Mandalorians]] and the radical splinter group [[Death Watch/Legends|Death Watch]], led by [[Tor Vizsla]].<ref name="HotM" /> The [[civil war]] drew in Mandalore's full-time [[Army/Legends|army]] and several prominent clans, yet was fought by two factions that were relatively small in comparison with the overall Mandalorian population, and had little effect on Mandalorian territory beyond the planet Mandalore. It was also around this time that an epidemic of the [[wirt-cough]] erupted across the worlds of the Mandalore system, spread through inter-planetary Mandalorian travel.<ref name="ImpCom">''[[Imperial Commando: 501st]]''</ref>

[[File:MandalorianProtectors-GAW.jpg|thumb|left|225px|The [[Mandalorian Protectors/Legends|Mandalorian Protectors]] fought for Mandalore's interests during the Clone Wars and [[Galactic Civil War/Legends|Galactic Civil War]].]]
During the [[Clone Wars/Legends|Clone Wars]], a pan-galactic conflict between the Galactic Republic and the separatist [[Confederacy of Independent Systems/Legends|Confederacy of Independent Systems]], the New Mandalorian [[Senator/Legends|senator]] [[Tal Merrik/Legends|Tal Merrik]] of Kalevala represented the Mandalore system in the [[Galactic Senate/Legends|Galactic Senate]]. However, Merrik was a supporter of the radical Death Watch group<ref name="VoT">{{TCW|Voyage of Temptation}}</ref> who sought to destroy the peaceful New Mandalorian [[Ruling Council (New Mandalorians)/Legends|government]] and take over Mandalore for themselves.<ref name="TMP" /> In his collaboration with the Death Watch, Merrik was [[Skirmish aboard the Coronet/Legends|slain]] while attempting to take the New Mandalorians' leader—Duchess [[Satine Kryze/Legends|Satine Kryze]]—hostage,<ref name="VoT" /> and the Mandalore system was nearly subjected to a Republic [[Mandalore Defense Resolution/Legends|occupation]] in order to pacify the Death Watch threat. It was only the combined effort of Kryze, and the [[Bombing on Kalevala/Legends|posthumous]] testimony of New Mandalorian [[Deputy Minister/Legends|Deputy Minister]] [[Jerec (Deputy Minister)/Legends|Jerec]] before the Galactic [[Senate]], that allowed the Mandalore system to remain free of Republic military control.<ref name="DoM" /> However, when [[Spar|Mandalore the Resurrector]] came to power, he elected to ally Mandalore with the Confederacy,<ref name="HotM" /> and fought on the Separatists' behalf during [[Battle of New Bornalex|several]] [[Battle of New Holstice|key]] [[Battle of Zaadja|engagements]].<ref name="GaW" />

Following the end of the Clone Wars, the Mandalore system came under the [[Eye/Legends|eye]] of the newly [[Declaration of a New Order|established]] [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Galactic Empire]] born from the former Galactic Republic. After purchasing land from the Mandalorian clans, an Imperial base and [[Garrison/Legends|garrison]] was established on Mandalore,<ref name="O66">''[[Order 66: A Republic Commando Novel]]''</ref> within the failed adventure park<ref name="ImpCom" /> known as the "[[City of Bone]]."<ref name="DCB">[[Star Wars (1977) 69|''Star Wars'' (1977) 69]]</ref> Though relations were initially tepid but peaceful,<ref name="ImpCom" /> the Empire eventually proved hostile, turning to enslaving the Mandalorians and lording over the Mandalore system and its sector by instilling [[Grand Admiral/Legends|Grand Admiral]] [[Miltin Takel]] as Imperial overseer.<ref name="HotM" /> It wasn't until [[3 ABY/Legends|3 ABY]]<ref name="DCB" /> that the Mandalorians under ''Mand'alor'' [[Fenn Shysa]],<ref name="ImpCom" /> were able to bring an end to the Imperial occupation of their homeworld, and break the Imperial hold over Mandalorian space when they ousted [[Admiral/Legends|Admiral]] Takel.<ref name="GaW" />

However, more trouble came to the Mandalore system soon after, in the form of [[Nagai]] invaders from the [[Satellite/Legends|satellite]] galaxy, [[Firefist|Companion Besh]].<ref name="TEA" /> The Nagai [[Battle of Mandallia|struck]] first at Mandallia, where the Mandalorians were able to expel the invaders at a high cost,<ref name="ForgottenWar">{{Hyperspace|url=fans/hyperspace/source/nagai11202009/index.html|text=The Forgotten War: The Nagai and the Tofs|int=The Forgotten War: The Nagai and the Tofs}}</ref> though they would shortly move on to [[Battle of Mandalore (Nagai invasion)|attack]] Mandalore. While the Mandalorians were initially defeated,<ref name="ForgottenWar" /> ''Mand'alor'' Shysa led his people into a coalition with the [[Alliance to Restore the Republic/Legends|Alliance to Restore the Republic]] in order to take back Mandalore, personally accepting a commission with the fledgling state to aid in the campaign against the Nagai and their own pursuing enemy, the [[Tof]]. Once peace had been restored, the Mandalorian Protectors began to live up to their name in more literal capacity: patrolling the Mandalore system and its surrounding sector of space, if any hostile ship entered Mandalorian territory, the Protectors would board and capture the vessel, taking it back to Mandalore.<ref name="GaW" />

Years of peace followed the conflict with the Nagai, only to be broken by the advent of another [[Yuuzhan Vong galaxy|extra-galactic]] invasion, this time by the [[Yuuzhan Vong]] race.<ref name="TEA" /> Though the Mandalorians initially allied with the [[Yuuzhan Vong empire|Vong forces]] to stall the threat they posed to the Mandalore system and all of Mandalorian space, while secretly seeking to undermine their efforts,<ref name="APM">''[[Boba Fett: A Practical Man]]''</ref> the Yuuzhan Vong came to learn of the Mandalorians' treachery and launched an [[Battle of Mandalore (Yuuzhan Vong War)|attack]] on the Mandalore system, specifically targeting Mandalore in retaliation. The battle reaped significant casualties on both sides, with the population of Mandalore being reduced by nearly a third as Mandalore's surface was severely damaged.<ref name="Sacrifice">''[[Legacy of the Force: Sacrifice]]''</ref> However, the Mandalorians managed to repel the Vong assault, forcing them to retreat from the system, and earning a reputation as one of the only groups to defeat the Yuuzhan Vong without any external aid.<ref name="TCSWE">''[[The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia]]''</ref>

After the war with the Yuuzhan Vong came to an end and the galaxy was left in peace as the Vong relocated to the living world of [[Zonama Sekot/Legends|Zonama Sekot]],<ref name="NEC" /> the Mandalore system turned to the slow process of recovery. However, true prosperity came only with the discovery of a fresh lode of ''beskar'' iron on Mandalore in [[40 ABY]]. With half commissioned for domestic use and the other for commercial sale, Mandalore's economy surged.<ref name="Sacrifice" />

==Inhabitants==
[[File:Goot_and_Bobb.jpg|thumb|right|200px|[[Mandallian Giant|Mandallians]] and Mandalorians were the primary inhabitants of the Mandalore system.]]
Native to the Mandalore system were the Mandallian Giants of Mandallia.<ref name="HotM" /> These beings were immense in stature, and covered with scales in [[Color/Legends|shades]] of green. Mandallians were trained from nearly infancy in several forms of combat, honing powerful martial skills during their lifetimes.<ref name="TCSWE" /> The Mandallians' high martial proficiency allowed them to repel the attacks of the Mandalorian Taung who sought to conquer their world and the other planets of the Mandalore system.<ref name="HotM" />

The Mandalorians—beginning with the culture's Taung founders, and continuing with the members of countless other species who later joined—have dominated the Mandalore system since approximately [[7000 BBY]].<ref name="TEA" /> A population of around four million individuals lived on Mandalore for much of the world's occupied history,<ref name="Revelation">''[[Legacy of the Force: Revelation]]''</ref> with a significant number of further Mandalorians living on the planet's moon, Concordia, which came to exist as an [[Farm/Legends|agricultural]] settlement and later a base for [[Mining/Legends|mining]] ''beskar'' iron ore. The peaceful New Mandalorian faction had established itself within the white-sand deserts of Mandalore,<ref name="NewBattlefronts" /> as well as on the neighboring world of Kalevala.<ref name="TEA" />

==Locations==
===Nog===
{{Main|Nog}}
Nog resided closest to the Mandalore system's star, occupying the first of the system's nine orbits. This close proximity rendered the terrestrial Nog a rocky world of searing [[Temperature/Legends|temperatures]]. Nog boasted an inhospitably hot climate, and was without any orbiting moons.<ref name="TEA" />

===Akaan===
{{Main|Akaan}}
Akaan occupied the second orbit of the Mandalore system, between the orbits of Nog and Tracyn. Akaan was a barren terrestrial world without an [[Atmosphere/Legends|atmosphere]], orbited by two moons.<ref name="TEA" /> The planet's name came from the ''Mando'a'' word ''akaan'', meaning "war."<ref name="Mando'a">{{Cite_web|url=http://www.karentraviss.com/page20/page26/index.html|title=Mando'a|author=Karen Traviss|work=[http://www.karentraviss.com Karen Traviss]|archivedate=20110925083955}}</ref>

===Tracyn===
{{Main|Tracyn}}
Tracyn circled its star in the Mandalore system's third orbit, placing it between the orbits of Akaan and Kalevala. Tracyn possessed extensive [[Volcano/Legends|volcanic]] activity across its terrestrial surface, and a total of four moons.<ref name="TEA" /> Tracyn took its name from the ''Mando'a'' word for "[[Fire/Legends|fire]]."<ref name="Mando'a" />

===Kalevala===
{{Main|Kalevala/Legends}}
Kalevala inhabited the fourth orbit of the Mandalore system. A neighbor of the Mandalorians' traditional homeworld, Mandalore, Kalevala was a terrestrial world whose terrain was primarily comprised of a [[Poison/Legends|toxic]] desertscape.<ref name="TEA" /> Following the rise of the peaceful New Mandalorian faction, Kalevala became home to a number of New Mandalorians. Kalevala produced such luxuries as expensive [[Wine/Legends|wines]]<ref name="NewBattlefronts" /> and rich fabrics.<ref name="TCWCE">''[[Star Wars: The Clone Wars Character Encyclopedia]]''</ref> [[Quench-gourd]]s also grew<ref name="TBHC" /> on the desert world.<ref name="TEA" /> The planet was home to the [[Kalevala Spaceworks/Legends|Kalevala Spaceworks]] [[Starship/Legends|starship]] manufacturing company.<ref name="TCWIV">''[[Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Incredible Vehicles]]''</ref>

===Mandalore===
{{Main|Mandalore/Legends}}
[[File:Mandaloreplanet.jpg|thumb|left|180px|Mandalore]]
The fifth planet in the Mandalore system, the planet Mandalore was the adopted homeworld of the multi-species cultural group known as the Mandalorians. A terrestrial world, Mandalore possessed two moons,<ref name="TEA" /> including the one time mining base and agricultural center, Concordia.<ref name="TMP" /> One of Mandalore's most unique assets—believed to have been what first drew the wandering Taung forces to the Outer Rim world—was ''beskar'' iron ore,<ref name="TBHC" /> a nearly indestructible metal used by Mandalorian [[Metalsmith/Legends|metalsmiths]] to forge [[Armor/Legends|armor]], weapons, and starships.<ref name="NewBattlefronts" /><ref name="Sacrifice" /> Before the rise of the Mandalorians, Mandalore was dominated by the gigantic mythosaurs, but when the Taung warriors arrived on Mandalore, they set to slaughtering the creatures as part of their conquest of the new world.<ref name="TEA" /> Native [[veshok]] [[Tree/Legends|trees]] covered much of Mandalore's northern hemisphere, and [[Diet/Legends|herbivorous]] animals called [[shatual]]s could be found living within the veshok forests, as could the six-legged [[strill]]s that [[Diet/Legends|preyed]] upon them for food.<ref name="O66" /> Forty-five degrees north of Mandalore's equator, sat the city of Keldabe.<ref name="APM" /> Since at least 3960 BBY, Keldabe had served as the capital of Mandalore, and the center of government for much of Mandalorian space,<ref name="TEA" /> while following the foundation of the New Mandalorian faction, the reformist sect declared the [[Domed city/Legends|domed city]] of [[Sundari/Legends|Sundari]], located in one of Mandalore's expansive white-sand desert regions, to be their capital.<ref name="NewBattlefronts" /> Most of Mandalore's settlements were built within a heavy [[Fortress|fortification]] that contributed to the ease with which they could be defended from potential invaders,<ref name="TCSWE" /> and most roads on Mandalore were rarely straight, designed so as to grant Mandalorians the advantage in ambushing and pinning down potential hostiles as they traveled.<ref name="Sacrifice" />

====Concordia====
{{Main|Concordia/Legends}}
[[File:Concordia.png|thumb|right|180px|Concordia]]
One of two moons of Mandalore,<ref name="TEA" /> Concordia was an agricultural center turned mining base.<ref name="TMP" /> The only other location known to have been heavily mined for the nearly-indestructable ''beskar'' iron ore aside from Mandalore itself, Concordia's lush forests were devastated by the Mandalorians' extensive mining efforts.<ref name="NewBattlefronts" /> Following the rise of the New Mandalorian faction, Concordia became a refuge for a number of Mandalorian hardliners who refused to yield to their reformist ideals and instead chose [[Exile (punishment)/Legends|exile]] on Mandalore's moon,<ref name="TEGW" /> rather than live alongside them as many warriors clans elected to do.<ref name="O66" /> After the devastation wrought by the [[Great Clan Wars]], during which several members of the fragmented Death Watch attempted to rally the other warrior clans against the New Mandalorians, a number of defeated but unrepentant warlords again chose exile on Concordia.<ref name="TBHC" /> By the start of the Clone Wars, Concordia had become a haven for a resurgent faction of the radical Death Watch<ref name="TMP" />—though they were later ousted and driven from the Mandalore system<ref name="ShadowConspiracy">''[[The Clone Wars: Darth Maul: Shadow Conspiracy]]''</ref>—and by the war's end, Concordia was known for its ostensible presence of [[Pirate/Legends|pirates]], [[Smuggler/Legends|smugglers]], and members of the [[Black Sun/Legends|Black Sun]] crime syndicate.<ref name="TLJ">[[The Last Jedi (novel)|''The Last Jedi'']]</ref>

===Mandallia===
{{Main|Mandallia}}
The homeworld of the Mandallian Giants,<ref name="HotM" /> Mandallia occupied the sixth orbit of the Mandalore system, between Mandalore and Bonagal. A terrestrial world, Mandallia possessed a single moon.<ref name="TEA" />

===Bonagal===
{{Main|Bonagal}}
Bonagal claimed the seventh orbit around the Mandalore system's star, taking its place between the orbits of Mandallia and Shukut. Bonagal was a gas giant world—one of two in the Mandalore system—and found itself surrounded by a total of thirty four moons.<ref name="TEA" />

===Shukut===
{{Main|Shukut}}
The second of two gas giants within the Mandalore system, Shukut held the eighth orbit within the system, placing it between Bonagal and Shukut. Like Bonagal, Shukut possessed a large number of moons, amassing thirty in total.<ref name="TEA" />

===Werda===
{{Main|Werda}}
At the farthest edge of the Mandalore system, and occupying its ninth orbit, was the planet Werda. Located so far from the system's sun, Werda was a frigid ice ball of a world, and it lacked any orbiting moons.<ref name="TEA" /> The planet's name came from the archaic ''Mando'a'' word ''werda'', which in [[Galactic Basic Standard/Legends|Galactic Basic]] meant "darkness."<ref name="Mando'a" />

==Behind the scenes==
{{Quote|As dissent threatens to tear apart the peaceful Mandalore system, Duchess Satine struggles to protect her people against the escalating violence.|''[[Duchess of Mandalore]]''{{'s}} opening news reel|<ref name="DoM" />}}
The Mandalore system has made numerous appearances throughout the ''[[Star Wars]]'' franchise, including several episodes of the [[Star Wars: The Clone Wars|''Star Wars: The Clone Wars'' television series]] and the multi-novel [[Republic Commando|''Republic'' and ''Imperial Commando'' series]] by [[Author/Legends|author]] [[Karen Traviss]]. Details concerning the system and planets that comprised it, were provided in the [[2009]] reference book, ''[[The Essential Atlas]]'', by [[Jason Fry]] and [[Daniel Wallace]].
