History[]
- "Governor Ferrouz is offering a very intriguing deal: a full-fledged base for the Alliance, complete with logistical support, docking facilities, and one of the finest natural supply depots in the galaxy..."
- ―Vestin Axlon
Located near Wild Space and Unknown Regions, the area that would become the Candoras sector was considered by the Galactic Republic as a bulwark against potential threats from both those areas.[2] The Candoras sector was a freestanding subsector during the Imperial Period,[1][3] meaning that its boundaries were charted and the sector was formally established sometimes after the reorganization of the regular Imperial sectors subsequent to the Declaration of a New Order.[4]
During the Galactic Civil War, it was overseen by Governor Bidor Ferrouz and defended by the Candoras Sector Fleet. In 0 ABY, Ferrouz contacted the Alliance to Restore the Republic to offer the Rebellion a base in the sector.[2]
