The Gortus system was located in the Kanz sector within an intersecting area of the Outer Rim Territories[1] and the New Territories.[2] Situated in grid square N-4 of the Standard Galactic Grid,[1] it contained the moon Gortus 4, which had a colony.[3] In 3 ABY,[4] the colony signed over the rights to Gortus 4 to Lady Domina Tagge of the House of Tagge, who planned for an ore factory to be constructed there.[3]
Behind the scenes
The Gortus system was mentioned in "Star Systems of the Galaxy," an appendix published on StarWars.com alongside the article Star Wars Galaxy Map."[1] Both works were authored by Jason Fry and released on June 24, 2025.[5]
