The Ruugia system was a star system that was located within the Altier sector, a part of the galactic regions known as the Expansion Region[1] and the Slice.[2] It was the origin point of the Ruugian noodles.[3][4]
Behind the scenes
The Ruugia system was first mentioned in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, written by Jason Fry and Daniel Wallace, which placed the system in grid square O-13.[5]

- ↑ 2.0 2.1 The Essential Atlas places the Ruugia system in grid square O-13. It also depicts territory falling in that grid square as being located in either the Slice region of the galaxy (spinward from the Corellian Run super-hyperroute) or the Trailing Sectors region (trailing from the Corellian Run). Since Star Wars: The Essential Atlas Online Companion on StarWars.com (article) (backup link) places the system within the Altier sector, which is located spinward from the Corellian Run, according to Essential Atlas Extra: Expansion Region on StarWars.com (backup link), it therefore must also be part of the Slice.

(backup link) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for the Ruugian noodles in relation to the Ruugia system.
