The Minyavi sector was a remote sector located in the southwestern Mid Rim, near the Unknown Regions.[1]

History

The Minyavi sector was a freestanding subsector of the Galactic Empire at the time of the Battle of Yavin.[1] This meant that this remote area was poorly explored or insufficiently documented before the Imperial period and was only recognized as a potential sector by the Empire. Yet, the region was not given a formal sector status when incorporated into Imperial Space and was not represented in the Imperial Senate for the time being.[3]

The sector finally obtained a proper sector status from the Galactic Federation of Free Alliances in 44 ABY. It was then represented at the Galactic Alliance Senate by Rokari Kem.[2]

Behind the scenes

Jason Fry, author of The Essential Atlas, stated that the Minyavi sector and other sectors listed within brackets in the Atlas appendix were freestanding subsectors.[4]
