System Information | |
X:Y Coordinates | −82.14 : 500.408[e] |
The system named The Rock was home to a number of habitable constructs and as of 3152 was located in the Republic of the Barrens.[1][2][3]
Contents
System Description
The system named The Rock is located near the Drask's Den and Ichmandu systems[1][2] and consists largely of asteroids and other small bodies orbiting the system primary; a number of these asteroids and bodies are inhabited, although some lack the atmosphere required to be habitable.[4][5]
System History
The Rock system was colonized at some point during the Second or Third Succession War, and by the end of the Third war had been incorporated into the bandit kingdom known as the Oberon Confederation.[6][7]
The Hell's Horses withdrew from The Rock after 3085. They did send several technical teams to help rebuild the extensive fortresses located in the system after their withdrawal, however.[8] After the Horses withdrew, The Rock joined with several other systems to form the Republic of the Barrens.[9]
