Star system

"There are so many! Do they all have a system of planets?''" "Most of them." "Has anyone been to them all?" "Not likely." "''I want to be the first one to see them all."

- Anakin Skywalker and Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn, looking at the stars

A star system, also known as a planetary system, solar system, or simply a system, was a group of celestial bodies, usually planets, orbiting a star. Most stars in the galaxy had their own planetary system. Chains of important star systems formed runs, which were vital navigational routes for trade and transit, and may have crossed multiple sectors.

During the crisis that led to the Clone Wars, several hundred systems that belonged to the Galactic Republic seceded and formed the Confederacy of Independent Systems under the leadership of a defrocked Jedi Master, Count Dooku of Serenno.
