- "Coruscant remains under Imperial control, but the fleeing loyalist armadas have ceded the rest of their territory to us. That leaves the warlords and opportunists isolated; eliminating the last of them will take time, but few remain a serious threat."
- ―Gial Ackbar, to the rest of the New Republic High Command
The Faultheen sector was located in an intersecting portion of the Inner Rim Territories[1] and the Interior regions.[2] It included the Mindabaal system at the coordinates J-13 on the Standard Galactic Grid.[1] The sector was under the control of the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War.[3] In 5 ABY,[4] after the New Republic had gained much of the Empire's territory, the Faultheen sector remained under Imperial control. On a holographic map displayed during a New Republic High Command meeting, the sector represented one of the largest areas that the Empire's warlords and opportunists still occupied, alongside the Anoat sector and the Chrenthoan Abyss. During the meeting, Admiral Gial Ackbar claimed that territories like the Faultheen sector remained isolated, with few of them being considered a serious threat to the New Republic.[3]
Behind the scenes
The Faultheen sector first appeared in a hologram in the 2021 novel Victory's Price: An Alphabet Squadron Novel, the final volume of the Star Wars: Alphabet Squadron trilogy which was written by Alexander Freed.[3]

- ↑ The events of Victory's Price: An Alphabet Squadron Novel begin after the Cerberon system campaign, and the novel also features the Battle of Jakku at the end of its three main sections. Since Star Wars: Timelines dates both of those conflicts to 5 ABY, the main events of Victory's Price must therefore be set in that year.
