Originally just known as the Rim, the Inner Rim is a region of space located between the Colonies and Expansion regions. It was once the frontier of galactic civilization for centuries before competition for resources led to expansion

pushing further into the wilderness of the galaxy. The Inner Rim gained prosperity as colonization spread. Many Inner Rim worlds are quite wealthy in their own rights, including Birren, Denon and Onderon.

KEY

This symbol marks a world that was first created for a canon literary source (reference books, novels, young adult novels, etc.) Other entries with literary sources have Legends counterparts.

This symbol marks a world that was ‘canonized’ in a recent Fantasy Flight Games roleplaying sourcebook. Wookieepedia considers the FFG material fully canon but its mix of Legends and canon content puts it somewhere in the middle. I decided to include these worlds in the Archive, for inclusiveness.

This symbol marks an entry as a moon. And since moons can be just as populated and culturally or historically significant as a planet (think Nar Shaddaa and Yavin IV), the distinction was important.

This symbol marks an entry as a moon and created for a canon literary source.

This symbol marks a world that saw significant military conflict during the Clone Wars (22 BBY - 19 BBY).

This symbol marks a world that saw significant military conflict during the Galactic Civil War (0 BBY - 5 ABY).

This symbol marks a world that saw significant military conflict during the war between the First Order and the Resistance (34 ABY - ? BBY).

Note:

If a world's only "canon" source in Wookieepedia is The Force Awakens Beginner Roleplaying Game, it will not be included in this collection.

A small world that sided with the Separatists during the Clone Wars. Following the end of the conflict and the establishment of the Galactic Empire, Arreyel fell into disfavor with Emperor Sheev Palpatine. It fell into a great economic depression and for this

reason it was chosen by the Apprentice Legislature as the site of an academy of aeronautical engineering and design. This was later to be revealed to be part of an elaborate plot on the part of the Empire to build planet-wide factories.

Independent from the New Republic in the years following the Galactic Civil War, Bastatha became a haven for organized crime, and the Kajain'sa'Nikto crime lord Rinnrivin Di ran his cartel on the planet.

Bastatha's surface was superheated by its red giant star, forcing all life on the planet, except for some bacteria, to live in underground caverns and tunnels.

CALCORAAN

j   I N N E R   j

A planet entirely covered by an ocean made out of chromyl chloride, which gave the planet its blood red color, mixed with several other acids, making it uninhabitable. However, substances in both the planetary ocean

and the ocean floor had uses in manufacturing, resulting in the construction of multiple space stations in Calcoraan's orbit. Count Denetrius Vidian had a storage facility orbiting this planet.

(Star Wars: A New Dawn)

CHAAKTIL

j   I N N E R   j

A desert planet that had many cities built around deep wells, such as Chaako City. The native fauna can be found on the planet included chaakrabbits, chaakrats, chaakroaches, as well as many lizards and dragons. It also had the best fried palm fruit, according to Vi Moradi.

CYNDA

j   I N N E R   j

Gorse system.
Cynda maintained an elliptical orbit around Gorse, often bringing it close enough to cause minor earthquakes on the planet's surface. Cynda's surface was icy looking, and its interior contained vast caverns of diamond stalagmites and stalactites containing the precious and volatile thorilide, a vital resource in the building of Galactic Republic and, later Imperial warship turbolaser batteries. Prior to the Galactic Empire,

Cynda was a pristine natural reserve whose oxygen-filled caves were popular with tourists from Gorse. During the reign of the Empire, Count Denetrius Vidian failed to detonate Cynda in order to maximize thorillide production yields. He was thwarted by rebels Kanan Jarrus and Hera Syndulla. Afterwards, all mining operations on Cynda were stopped and the moon was restored to its former status as a nature reserve.

GOROBEI

j   I N N E R   j

GORSE

j   I N N E R   j

Gorse system.
A tidally-locked planet, it had one moon called Cynda, which was rich in thorilide crystals. Gravitational forces of its star and its moon, Cynda, caused one side of the planet to permanently face its sun while the opposite side of the planet was stuck in perpetual darkness. As a result, the hemisphere of Gorse that baked in constant daylight experienced temperatures hot enough to melt droids. Only the humid night side of the planet was habitable. The planet suffered from constant groundquakes due to its strange gravitational state. Cities covered much of the dark side of Gorse. There, thorilide crystals imported from Cynda were refined and processed for use in shielding starships from turbolaser cannons. Many of those working

in this industry were housed at Crispus Commons, an apartment building for veterans of the Clone Wars. Gorse had several urban settlements including Gorse City, Shaketown, and Highground. During the Age of the Empire, Gorse had seemingly exhausted its thorilide reserves and had become a major refinery for thorilide exports from Cynda, which had been opened up to thorilide mining. Gorse served as the location of a conflict between the Galactic Empire and a small rebel cell led by Hera Syndulla and the former Jedi Padawan Kanan Jarrus. Following the Gorse conflict, thorilide mining was established in Gorse's sunward side while Cynda was restored to its former status as a nature reserve.

LI-TORAN

j   I N N E R   j

A gloomy and stormy planet that was the homeworld of the insectile Melitto species. With its constant volcanic activity, violent storms, and dark clouds of toxic gasses,

it was remarkably inhospitable to most species in the galaxy. Thanks to that, the Melitto culture had very little interference from offworlders.

A deep-blue gas giant streaked with electric green clouds of clouzon gas. Its eight moons were pitted with craters from asteroid strikes. A trio of stations called Navlaas Triad orbited the world. They mined, processed,

and refined clouzon gas before the Empire, which squeezed the mining company too hard and made the Triad backwater refueling posts for smugglers, illegal racing syndicates.

Although similar to the planet Tatooine in terms of terrain, Pasher lacked the intersecting hyperspace routes that made the other world a popular smugglers' den. By the time of the

Galactic Civil War, the largest industry on Pasher was Kelen Biolabs, which exploited the natural poison and glands of the native sandstone scorpions and spine spiders.

PIJAL

j   I N N E R   j

A temperate planet with a pleasantly warm climate, numerous mountain ranges and caves, abundant blue oceans, ringed with broad green-and-gold islands at its equator and tropics. The warm climate led to lush green hills in summertime, vineyards with the potential to produce top-class wines, and tall, slender conifers that waved slightly in the breeze. Giant cliffs judded out into the water, their white stone imposing itself on the seascape. The planet had a small population, and the entire royal complex, including the palace, were in and around those same cliffs. They had been hollowed out with windows in various geometric shapes hewn from the rock. The only hints above the surface was the round temple known as the Celestial Chalice, and grounds so thickly forested with trees that it was easy to miss the manicured lawns and

antique iron fences. This is because Pijali culture believes in focusing on the internal, rather than the external. Pijal had ancient planetary shield generators in orbit, but they weren’t strong enough to block most ships. Millennia ago, according to local legend, Pijal had been one of the first worlds to adopt planetary shield technology. At some point, the local form of Force worship began urging pilgrims to travel into space periodically to experience the darkness and zero-gravity for themselves—so as to make them truly grateful for the beautiful planet they had. The vessels they use for these trips are called soulcraft. They are ancient ships, but they are valued because of their ancientness. Circles and spheres tend to be sacred shapes on Pijal.

PIJAL'S MOON

j   I N N E R   j

Nearly as large as Pijal itself, the planet's moon is darker green than Pijal and densely wooded. Thick forests of trees with distinctively knobby, gnarled trunks and branches. The terrain was uneven, rich with both cliffs and caverns. Sinuous vines twined around low shrubs and tree trunks, fruit gleaming in various shades of deep purple and a green so pale it was almost gold.
