Pendaxa was a celestial body[4] located in the Pendaxa system, a part of the Jjannex sector[1] in the Western Reaches portion[2] of the Outer Rim Territories.[1] It was situated on the hyperlane known as the Lipsec Run,[3] which linked it to the Kelrodo-Ai system[4] of the Steniplis sector[5] and the Anoat sector's Mev system.[6]
The Eighteenth Sector Army of the Galactic Republic was tasked with engaging the military forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems in Pendaxa's vicinity during the first campaigns of the Clone Wars in 22 BBY. By 17 BBY, Pendaxa fell within the territory controlled by the Separatist holdouts, and that year, the military of the Galactic Empire fought a famous battle there as part of the Western Reaches Operation, a campaign targeting pirates and Separatist remnants that was a part of the Imperial Reconquest of the Rim.[4]
Behind the scenes
Pendaxa was introduced in the 2012 reference book The Essential Guide to Warfare by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart.[4] The StarWars.com Online Companion to the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas later placed the Pendaxa system, and therefore Pendaxa, in grid square K-19.[1]
