Enarc was an astronomical object[3] located in the Enarc system in the Alui sector of the Mid Rim Territories[1] and the Trailing Sectors.[2] Situated in grid square O-17 of the Standard Galactic Grid, it was located at the confluence of a number of hyperspace routes;[3] it was the southern endpoint of the Triellus Trade Route[5] and the eastern endpoint of the Enarc Run,[4] and was situated along another route that ran from Darkknell on the Hydian Way to the New Cov system on the Corellian Run.[3]

In 32 BBY,[6] the Trade Federation blockaded the planet Naboo in preparation for a planned invasion, resulting in food shortages. Governor Kelma of the planet Karlinus, located elsewhere in Naboo's Chommell sector, sent an agricultural transport full of grain to Naboo as a sign of good faith after the recent summit. However, the starship was refused passage and forced to divert to Enarc[7] just south of Naboo along the Enarc Run,[3] where the grain was placed in cold storage.[7]

Behind the scenes

Enarc was first canonically mentioned on a galactic map in the January 29, 2016 StarWars.com article "Where in the Galaxy Are the Worlds of Star Wars: The Force Awakens?" by Mark Newbold.[8] In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the planet Enarc was first mentioned in the 1993 Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game supplement Twin Stars of Kira.[9]

Same galaxy, same map. In the rare event something needs to be changed, it will be discussed. (In response to: Hi @jasoncfry.bsky.social, was hoping you could confirm for Wookieepedia purposes that the hyperspace routes depicted on the Galaxy Map given out at Celebration are intended to be the same routes as in Legends. Sorry to bother, but would make our lives much easier to have it confirmed!)" (screenshot).
