Bosph

Bosph was a planet where the Imperial Navy of the Galactic Empire repeatedly carried out large-scale orbital bombardment in 3 BBY in an attempt to commit genocide on a sentient species that dwelt there. Surviving members of the species were then kept under an ongoing quarantine and, because of this, chose to dis-remember the Empire, a grave insult in their society that meant that they refused to acknowledge the existence of the state. In 35 ABY, the historian Beaumont Kin mentioned Bosph and described the damage done by the bombardments as still being effectively irreparable in hisStar Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary book The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire.
==Behind the scenes==
In the current Star Wars canon, Bosph was mentioned in the 2024 reference book Star Wars: The Rise and Fall of the Galactic Empire, which was written by Dr. Chris Kempshall. The planet originated in the Star Wars Legends continuity, where it was first mentioned in "Smugglers of the Outer Rim," a Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game source article written by Doug Shuler and published in the fifth issue of West End Games' Star Wars Adventure Journal magazine in February 1995.
