The Denarii system was a star system located in the Gordian Reach sector, within the Trans-Hydian portion of the Outer Rim Territories.[1] It contained a pair of stars known as the Denarii Nova.[2]
History
- "Steer our vessel between the Denarii suns—it is time to remind the Republic of the power of the dark side!"
- ―Naga Sadow
The Denarii system and its surrounding systems
At the end of the Great Hyperspace War in 5000 BBY,[1] the Dark Lord of the Sith Naga Sadow flew his damaged flagship, the Corsair, between the binary stars of the Denarii Nova to escape the Galactic Republic forces that pursued him.[3] The Sith sorcerer used his powers to manipulate the solar flares of the Denarii Nova, thus creating an explosion that destroyed the Republic ships in his wake.[3]
This cataclysmic event resulted in the destruction of the entire system,[2] which created a nebula of highly ionized gases known as the Denarii Nebula.[1]
