The Elrood sector was a sector located along the Rimma Trade Route in the Metharian Nebula Territories. It contained the Degan Gas Clouds and the Kuras Drift, which surrounded many planetary systems.

History[]

The sector was named after Senator Elrood, who fought to secure the funding for the colonization effort.^[2] A few years before the Battle of Naboo in 32 BBY, the sector struggled against the threat of a band of marauding Dark Jedi, who were ultimately defeated by a Jedi strike team under the command of Jorus C'baoth.^[10]

Just before the Clone Wars began in 22 BBY, the sector joined the Confederacy of Independent Systems.^[8] In the Yuuzhan Vong War, the invaders bypassed the sector.

During Imperial rule, it was governed by Moff Villis Andal, who commanded the Elrood Sector Fleet. Chau Feswin represented the sector in the New Republic Senate. Elrood StarYards, Ltd. was based in this sector.

During the Galactic Civil War, the sector was the site of a violent campaign between the Rebel and Imperial forces.^[3] Following the Battle of Endor, the Elrood sector was among the first sectors to throw off the Empire.^[9]
