Yaga Minor/Legends

Yaga Minor was the Republic member world from which the Outbound Flight project departed into the Unknown Regions 27 BBY. The planet's primary native species were the Yagai, insectoids with a hive-caste society.

The planet was one of the last strongholds of the Imperial Remnant. It featured a major cluster of shipyards that proved instrumental in Grand Admiral Thrawn's campaign against the New Republic, and was also the site of an important Ubiqtorate base.

At the time of the signing of the Pellaeon-Gavrisom Treaty in 19 ABY, Yaga Minor was the last shipyard under Imperial control. It was governed by Moff Kurlen Flennic. Just before the signing of the treaty, Yaga Minor was the site of the last battle of the Galactic Civil War.

During the Yuuzhan Vong invasion, it was attacked shortly after the destruction of Ithor, though the battle was split into three ways with the arrival of forces under Lumiya, who was attempting to steal Baffor pollen harvested from Ithor before its fall. The Yuuzhan Vong retreated, as did Lumiya. Later in the war, Imperial forces fleeing from Bastion regrouped here before facing the Yuuzhan Vong at Borosk. A third of the Yuuzhan Vong fleet defeated there jumped to attack the shipyards, though they were repelled in short order.

Location
Yaga Minor is clearly described in the books Spectre of the Past and Vision of the Future as being part of the Imperial Remnant, not far from the capital Bastion, The Imperial Remnant being a small group of systems in the Outer Rim. The Star Wars: Rebellion computer game has Yaga Minor in close proximity to Coruscant, which is likely a mistake on the part of the game designers. The New Republic is likely to have captured any major production facility close to the Galactic Capital, and the programmers may have become confused as to whether it was the new or the old Imperial capital that Yaga Minor is supposed to be near.
