- "The Sluis sector is a large expanse of sparsely populated space, renowned for its mineral resources and processing facilities. Its primary system, Sluis Van, maintains a formidable shipyard for construction and maintenance."
- ―HoloNet News
The Sluis system (pronounced /'slu.i/), also known as the Sluis Van system, was the central star system in the Sluis sector of the Outer Rim Territories. The system's primary planet was Sluis Van.
History
The system withdrew from the Republic to join the CIS before the Clone Wars. Its senator at that time was Corlissi Ludar.[6]
In 9 ABY, the system was the site of a battle with Grand Admiral Thrawn during his campaign against the New Republic.[4]
Behind the scenes
The PC game Star Wars: Rebellion mistakenly places the Sluis sector and, consequently, the Sluis system, in the Galactic Core.[7]
