Urce sector

The Urce sector was a space sector located in the Lesser Plooriod Cluster, inhabited by humans. A hyperspace route mapped by Ithorians from the planet Ithor and later by the Trade Federation intersected with the Urce sector.
In 28 BBY,Star Wars: Timelines dates the events of Queen's Shadow to 28 BBY. the Ithorians sought to make the map of the hyperspace route public in a motion within the Senate of the Galactic Republic. Supreme Chancellor Palpatine opened the Senate floor for debate, allowing a human senator and a Trade Federation delegate to argue with the Ithorian senator proposing the initiative. Senator Padmé Amidala voted in favor of the motion, musing that the Urce sector's inhabitants only held a claim to a part of the route, whereas the Ithorians had been using the route long before the Trade Federation mapped it. However, the motion ultimately failed.
