The Setar system was located in the Inner Cluster[3] of the Inner Rim Territories[1] and the Interior[2] in grid square O-11 of the Standard Galactic Grid.[1] It was home to[5] the sentient Setaran species.[4]

Behind the scenes

The Setar system was first mentioned in Pablo Hidalgo's 2025 reference book Star Wars: The Acolyte: The Visual Guide on a galaxy map authored by Jason Fry and Christopher Ibbitt.[1] The October 14, 2025 update to[6] "Star Systems of the Galaxy," an appendix published with the Star Wars Galaxy Map on StarWars.com[3] on June 24 of the same year—with both works being authored by Fry[7]—subsequently identified the system by name.[3]
