History

In 41 BBY, Jango Fett lost his armor in the sector. While searching for it, he met Sheeka Tull. Bufus Ritsomas represented the sector in the Galactic Senate.

During the time of the Galactic Civil War, Governor Zerex of the planet Ord Adinorr was appointed to become the Moff of the Meridian sector. By 1 ABY, the most modern, architecturally sophisticated spaceport in the sector was located in the city of Anem, the capital of Nyemari. In 13 ABY, Moff Tol Getelles of the Antemeridian sector tried to take control of the Meridian sector, but was defeated by the New Republic.

The sector was overrun by the Yuuzhan Vong nearly 25 ABY as they made their way through the Outer Rim toward Hutt Space.
