==Description==
Trasemene was an astronomical object located in the Trasemene system, a part of the Phelleem sector in the Slice portion of the Outer Rim Territories. It was situated on the super-hyperroute known as the Triellus Trade Route, which connected it to the Handooine and Jabiim systems as well as the Sy Myrth system of the Jospro sector.
==History==
During the first campaigns of the Clone Wars in 22 BBY, Trasemene fell within space controlled by the Confederacy of Independent Systems, with the Twelfth Sector Army of the Galactic Republic being charged with engaging the Confederate forces in its vicinity. Three years later, after the end of the Clone Wars and the reorganization of the Republic into the Galactic Empire, Trasemene remained a part of the territory held by the Separatist holdout led by the Sy Myrthian Toonbuck Toora. That year, Toora's fleet was obliterated at Trasemene by a naval force of the Empire. Trasemene subsequently came to be situated within Imperial borders by 17 BBY.
Trasemene also shared its name with the Siege of Trasemene, which took place at some point between 19 BBY and 3 ABY.Galladinium's Fantastic Technology, which is set before the events of , establishes that the Galactic Empire was involved in the Siege of Trasemene. Since The New Essential Chronology dates the formation of the Empire and the events of The Empire Strikes Back to 19 BBY and 3 ABY, respectively, the siege must have occurred at some point between those two dates. The celestial body remained outside the territory of the New Republic by 17 ABY.
==Behind the scenes==

Stuart for use with West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.Galladinium's Fantastic Technology In 2012, the reference book The Essential Guide to Warfare, authored by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart, established Trasemene as a distinct astronomical object. The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Trasemene system, and therefore the celestial body itself, in grid square S-7.
