Zaddja was a barren planet[3] located in the Zaddja system[1] of the Trilon sector,[2] beyond the most inhabited regions of the galaxy.[4] It was orbited by a small asteroid shroud.[3]
The planet seemed mostly uninhabited, and never received any attention from the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War. It was not until years after the fall of Emperor Palpatine that Imperials first visited the planet. Stormtroopers under the command of General Redd Wessel had been dispatched to the planet to capture Kir Kanos. The location, however was an ambush, and most of the stormtrooper squad was killed by explosives.[3]
Behind the scenes[]
Star Wars: The Comics Companion initially idenitified Zaddja and Zaadja as the same planet. More recently however, The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia treats them as different planets, each getting an entry in the encyclopedia. The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia adds further confusion to the situation by erroneously labelling the image of Zaddja as Zaadja.
