The Walin'or system was located in the Shiwal sector,[1] a part of the New Territories portion of[2] the Mid Rim.[1] A hyperlane connected the star system to the Mapuzo system in the Hollan sector and the Belukat system in the Expansion Region.[3]
The Walin'or system was the origin point of[4] the Rebel Alliance's Walin'or cell.[5] By 12 ABY, Walin'or served as a New Republic stronghold. That year, the New Republic fleet carrier Endurance traveled through the Walin'or system as part of a military campaign against the forces of the Imperial Remnant.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
The Walin'or system was first mentioned in the 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, authored by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry, which placed it in grid square M-7. In a map of the Mid Rim included in the book, the system's name was misspelled as "Walinor."[2]

(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 Walin'or cell in relation to the Walin'or system.
