New Holstice was a terrestrial astronomical object[2] in the New Holstice system in the Maldrood sector of the Mid Rim Territories[1] which had medical facilities associated with the Galactic Republic.[3] The people from New Holstice hosted a monument to Jedi lost in service to the Republic.[2]
By the third year of the Clone Wars between the Republic and the Confederacy of Independent Systems, the monument, which was a cylindrical habitat of glowing memory moths, could allegedly be seen from orbit given all the Jedi lost in battle.[2] New Holstice was also the site of a battle during the war that the 327th Star Corps displayed courage in under the command of Clone Commander CC-5052 "Bly."[4]
