The Chirrion system was located in the Rolion sector,[1] a part of the Trans-Hydian portion of[2] the Outer Rim Territories.[1] During the Galactic Civil War,[3] it was the site of[4] Chirrion Base, one of the 752 military bases that the Galactic Empire maintained in the Rolion sector.[3]
Behind the scenes
The Chirrion system was first mentioned in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, authored by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry, which placed it in grid square Q-6.[2]

(backup link) (screenshot) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for Chirrion Base in relation to the Chirrion system.
