- "He's just returned from a border dispute on Ansion."
- ―Mace Windu, referring to Obi-Wan Kenobi
Ansion was a planet located in the Mid Rim.[4] A border dispute occurred on Ansion[3] during the Separatist Crisis, which, along with turmoil on the planet Ando, was enough to stagger the galaxy.[5] Ansion was connected via hyperspace route to the planets Keitum, Glee Anselm, Namadii, Rago,[1] and Benath.[6]
