Ebenmal

Ebenmal was a planetoid located in the Ebenmal system of the Mid Rim's Irnaj sector. It was on Ebenmal that a battle between the Galactic Empire and the Rebel Alliance was fought sometime between the years 2 and 1 BBY. The ancient citadel of Ebenmal, which was said to have never fallen to an invader for over ten thousand years, was attacked by eighty-five Imperial jumptroopers, who brought chaos and disarray. In one hour's time, 3,000 Rebels surrendered. The battle was later mentioned in Imperial Atrocities and Other Noble Pursuits, by historian Chen Ming-di.
