Boosodia was a celestial body[5] located in the Boosodia system[2] of the Inner Rim Territories in grid square N-8 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1] It was the homeworld of[4] the sentient Boosodian species,[3] including the forger Amuncie Tidian.[5]
Behind the scenes
Boosodia's name was first mentioned on a map[1] designed by Christopher Ibbitt[6] that was created for the reference book Star Wars: Timelines and given out as a promotional poster at Celebration Anaheim[7] on May 27, 2022[8] prior to the book's release during Celebration Europe[9] of April 7 through 10, 2023.[10] The 2024 reference book Star Wars Encyclopedia: The Comprehensive Guide to the Star Wars Galaxy subsequently established Boosodia as a distinct celestial body.[5]

This article treats Boosodia as one such homeworld with regard to the Boosodian species.
