The Pii system was an Outer Rim Territories star system in Arkanis sector near the Mid Rim border. It centered on a red giant and contained seven orbiting planets and two separate asteroid belts.

The system was sold to a Corulag entrepreneur when preliminary mining expeditions were fruitless, but eventually developed a profitable industry centered on the logging and export of luxury greel wood from the planets Pii III and Pii IV.

History

At some point between 1 ABY and 2 ABY,^[4] the Habassan convoy Jess sent a distress signal while under attack by Imperial Gunboats^[5]—two from GUN Mu and two from GUN Nu^[6]—near Pii II. After the Rebel Alliance received the signal,^[5] Admiral^[7] Gial Ackbar briefed four pilots of Red Squadron on the situation, being the only available forces.^[5] He^[7] then dispatched the four pilots in A/SF-01 B-wing starfighters. The squadron departed the Mon Calamari Star Cruiser the Defiance and jumped to hyperspace, travelling to the Pii system.^[5]

Red Squadron emerged from hyperspace with the convoy between them and the four Gunboats. As Keyan Farlander, a Rebel pilot of Red Squadron, assessed the situation, eight more Gunboats arrived—four from Rho group and four from Tau group.^[6]
