"Meanwhile, amid the slightly outdated tendencies of some instructors at the Imperial Academy on Alsakan, Major Urkhaste's lessons on defensive tactics and deployments were apparently legendary."
―Beaumont Kin, The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire[1]

Urkhaste was a major in the Galactic Empire who delivered a series of lectures titled Principles and Precepts of Defensive Fortifications at Alsakan Academy on[1] the planet[2] Alsakan. The lectures covered defensive tactics and deployments and a file on the series was stored in the "Alsakan Imperial Academy" section of the Imperial Archives.[1] In 35 ABY,[3] the historian Beaumont Kin mentioned Urkhaste in[1] his[4] book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, claiming that the major's lectures were supposedly legendary despite other instructors at the academy having a tendency to be slightly outdated.[1]

Behind the scenes

Urkhaste was mentioned in the 2024 reference book Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, which was written by Dr. Chris Kempshall.[1]
