Unknown Regions

The Unknown Regions, also referred to as Unknown Space, the Unknown Territories, the Unknowns, and the Outer Reaches, was a region of the galaxy located in the galactic west beyond the Outer Rim. Largely unexplored by larger galactic society throughout history, with supernovas, black holes, gravity wells, and stranger phenomena rendering the region a dangerous space to navigate it remained a source of wonders and mysteries among star-hoppers, while the Chaos became the endonym among the inhabitants of the Unknown Regions. As navigation computers became unreliable within the Chaos, those who lived in the Unknown Regions employed Force-sensitive navigators, individuals endowed with the Force's power of precognition, to navigate. When navigators were unavailable, long hyperspace journeys had to be jump-by-jump instead. As such, the secrecy of Unknown Regions painted an ideal location for loyalist remnants of the Galactic Empire to retreat and reorganize following their defeat in the Galactic Civil War by the henceforth-reigning New Republic.
