Ordnance/Regional Depot

An Ordnance/Regional Depot, abbreviated Ord, was a planet which served as a military outpost during the height of the Galactic Republic. These depots were setup as the Core worlds began to colonize rimward worlds from around 13,000 BBY, the Galactic Republic established Ordnance/Regional Depot worlds as forward military and scout bases part of Contispex's anti-alien crusades

Over a period of a few thousand years, the abbreviation stuck, and many planets from that era were commonly described with their "Ord" title. Many of the planets settled as military bases were designed to protect colonists, specifically Human colonists, who settled into the depths of space. It was often done out of a reaction of speciesism to protect Humans from indigenous aliens.
