Chazwa

Chazwa was a cold planet in the Chazwa system of the Orus sector, located in the Inner Rim. Its location along a popular freighter traffic route made it an ideal shipping center for all sorts of goods. As such, heavy freighter traffic within the system was not an uncommon sight. However, the abundance of valuable merchandise moving through the system lent itself to strong influence by smugglers.

Chazwa orbited a small white dwarf star in the Chazwa system in the Orus sector of the Inner Rim region of the galaxy and was situated between Joiol and the Relatta system on the Perlemian Trade Route.
