Jedi Praxeum

Canon Linked from 251 articles

The Jedi Praxeum, also known as the Jedi Academy or the Yavin Praxeum, was an academy that was founded by Jedi Master Luke Skywalker on Yavin 4 in 11 ABY during the era of the New Republic.

The ancient Jedi scholar Karena coined the term praxeum to describe a Jedi academy as a place for the "distillation of learning combined with action." In the days of the Galactic Republic, well-known praxeums included those on Teya IV, Arkania, Ossus and Dantooine.

Inspired by the parting words of Obi-Wan Kenobi and the several Force-sensitive individuals he had encountered, Skywalker planned for a unique institution where new and old Jedi could learn together.

During the Yuuzhan Vong War, the Praxeum was destroyed during the Yuuzhan Vong's Invasion of Yavin 4.
