==Description==
Generis was an astronomical object located in the Atrivis sector within an intersecting portion of the Outer Rim Territories and the New Territories. It was situated in grid square L-5 of the Standard Galactic Grid.
==History==
By 5 BBY,Star Wars: The Rebel Files establishes that the armed rebellion in the Atrivis sector was ongoing by fourteen years after the Galactic Empire's formation, which Star Wars: Timelines places in 19 BBY. Therefore, the armed rebellion must have begun by 5 BBY. there was an armed rebellion against the Galactic Empire in the Atrivis sector, with one rebel cell, known as the Atrivis Resistance Group, being based at Generis Station. That cell allied itself with a larger organized rebellion secretly headed by Senator Mon Mothma after the Empire crushed another local cell on the nearby celestial body Mantooine.Star Wars: The Rebel Files
Generis itself became an operations headquarters for the rebellion by 2 BBY.In Star Wars: The Rebel Files, the report regarding the rebel locations—including Generis—is set between the introduction of the TIE/d "Defender" Multi-Role Starfighter and the Declaration of the Rebel Alliance, which are both dated to 2 BBY by Star Wars: Timelines. That fact was noted on a map of rebel safe worlds, starfighter hubs at level five or higher, operations headquarters, shadow planets, and deep space caches sent to Mothma. Archivist Hendri Underholt eventually archived the map in the compilation of non-electronic documents known as The Rebel Files. Mothma declared the official Alliance to Restore the Republic later in 2 BBY.Star Wars: Timelines
