Shimia

Legends Canon version → Linked from 13 articles

Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

Shimia was a planet of grass-covered plains, mountains, and seas located in the Outer Rim Territories' Dalchon sector. It was the homeworld of the Pacithhip species, the society of which was ruled by a caste system. Situated near the Corellian Run super-hyperroute, Shimia had become a part of the Galactic Republic by 17,000 BBY, with the Republic establishing spaceports there. The Galactic Empire subsequently subjugated the planet but largely left it alone, and the Pacithhips took over the Imperial facilities and began importing standard galactic technology after the Battle of Endor.
