Paecia was a world[3] located in the Quelii sector of the Outer Rim Territories.[1] The world was inhabited by Humans[3] known as the Paecians.[5] During the Old Republic era,[4] they developed a great civilization[5] and founded an empire named the Paecian Empire.[4] The Humans from Paecia then colonized neighboring worlds such as Dathomir.[3] The Paecian Empire eventually vanished around 3000 BBY.[6]
Behind the scenes
Although the Paecian Empire was created in the 1994 novel The Courtship of Princess Leia,[6] and was later mentioned in several other books,[4] the world of Paecia was only created in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas.[3]
