Rampa 1,[3] also known as Rampa I,[4] was a planet[5] located in the Rampa Minor system, within the Baxel sector of the Outer Rim Territories.[1]
History
- "Saw plenty of action with the 9th Engineering Battalion, mostly in the Western Reaches, but the massacre at Rampa I and what they did on Gall was just too much."
- ―Lira Hardin
In 4 BBY,[6] the populace of Rampa 1 rebelled against the Galactic Empire, following the example of Rampa 2.[3] Both locales were violently subjugated by the Empire.[5]
Behind the scenes
Rampa 1 was first mentioned in the 1997 novel The Hutt Gambit, the second volume of Star Wars: The Han Solo Trilogy written by A. C. Crispin.[3] It was mentioned again in the 1998 novel Rebel Dawn, the third volume of the trilogy.[5]
The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas created the Rampa Minor system to differentiate Rampa 1 and Rampa 2 from Rampa III, a planet introduced in Brian Daley's Star Wars: The Han Solo Adventures, establishing that they are not in the same system.[2]
Though The Essential Atlas places the Rampa Minor system rimward of Hutt Space,[2] comments made by Han Solo during the events of The Hutt Gambit seem to imply that both Rampa 1 and Rampa 2 are not located in the Outer Rim Territories but rather closer to Coruscant and civilization.[3]
