Brigia was an astronomical object[4] located in an eponymous star system within the intersecting portion of the Outer Rim Territories[1] and the Slice.[3] Situated in the Tion Cluster[2] in the Tion Hegemony at the coordinates T-6 on the Standard Galactic Grid,[1] it was an operations headquarters for Senator Mon Mothma's organized rebellion against the Galactic Empire[4] by 2 BBY.[5] Brigia was noted as such on a galactic map sent to Mothma[4] that year[5] that listed safe worlds, starfighter hubs at level five or higher, operations headquarters, shadow planets, and deep space caches. The archivist Hendri Underholt eventually included the map in the archive of non-electronic documents known as The Rebel Files.[4]
Behind the scenes
Brigia was mentioned in the current Star Wars canon in the Daniel Wallace's 2017 reference book Star Wars: The Rebel Files.[4] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the planet Brigia first appeared in Brian Daley's 1980 novel Han Solo and the Lost Legacy[6] and was later pictured in the 1993 LucasArts video game Star Wars: X-Wing.[7]
