Anoat sector

The Anoat sector was a subsector of the Javin sector in the Outer Rim Territories, forming part of the Greater Javin region. It included multiple worlds such as Bespin, Burnin Konn, and Hoth. The sector was once administered from the city-world of Anoat, though the capital was moved to Gerrenthum during the reign of the Galactic Empire.

The Anoat sector was valuable in part thanks to the tibanna gas generated and refined on the gas giant Bespin. It was historically ruled by the Noble Court, the Nothoiin aristocracy that for centuries maintained the sector's independence from the Galactic Republic. Other regional powers included the Trade Spine League and the Hutt-led Ivax Syndicate, as well as a number of cults and secret societies like the Kouhun that promoted warfare and bloodshed.

In the days following the Battle of Endor, the sector was blockaded by Governor Ubrik Adelhard, who sought to enforce the authority of his Imperial remnant.
