The Belnar system was situated at the coordinates M-9 within an intersecting portion of the Colonies[1] and the Interior regions.[2] Located within the Belnar sector,[1] it lay in the vicinity of the Belnar Insurrections,[3] which took place at some point by 3 ABY.[4] During the Belnar Insurrections, Everi Chalis, an emissary to the Galactic Empire's ruling council, punished the crew of the starship Mandible over an incident, executing those responsible.[3]
Behind the scenes
The Belnar system was introduced in the current Star Wars canon via a mention of the Belnar Insurrections in the novel Battlefront: Twilight Company, written by Alexander Freed[3] and published on November 3, 2015.[5] It was first introduced as a location by the fifty-second issue of De Agostini's magazine series Star Wars: Build the Millennium Falcon,[6] in an article written by Mark Newbold,[7] released around December 30 of the same year.[8] Its classification as a star system was then established in "Star Systems of the Galaxy," an appendix published with the Star Wars Galaxy Map.[1] Both works were authored by Jason Fry and published on StarWars.com on June 24, 2025.[9] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the Belnar system was originally introduced in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, written by Jason Fry and Daniel Wallace.[10]
