Lambda sector

The Lambda sector was a sector in the Mid Rim, neighboring the Dufilvian sector.^[11] Planets in Lambda included Rintonne and Xandil VII, as well as a number of heavy industrial worlds and ship construction centers.^[3]

History

Around 3624 BBY the Mandalorian splinter faction known as the Hidden Chain raided a three-planet system in the Lambda sector. Jekiah Ordo, who was commanding Mandalorian loyalist forces in Mandalore the Avengers stead, dispatched Galaar Squad to deal with the traitors.^[12]

Between 57 BBY and 39 BBY, the sector was the site of the Andoan Wars.^[5]

The Lambda sector was represented in the Galactic Senate by Rasit Brun at the time of the Separatist Crisis.^[6] The sector split in two during the Clone Wars. The systems located along the two major hyperlanes joined the Separatists.^[4]

Under the Galactic Empire, the sector was governed by Moff Par Lankin.^[3] Following the Battle of Endor, the Lambda sector was among the first sectors to throw off the Empire.^[8] However, Moff Lankin became one of the many Imperial warlords, keeping the sector under control^[7] and making Rintonne his fortress world.^[4]

During the Nagai–Tof War, the Nagai crossed the Lambda sector, defeating Moff Lankin's forces on their way.^[4]

The sector was liberated when the New Republic defeated warlord Par Lankin in 7 ABY.^[3]

In 9 ABY, Grand Admiral Thrawn reconquered all the systems located along the two major hyperlanes of the sector, including the planets Ando, Mon Gazza, the Algaran system, and astronomical object Thape.^[4]
