Vardos

Vardos was a planet located in the Jinata system in the galaxy's Core Worlds, and was home to Iden and Garrick Versio. Vardos was notable for its diversity and loyalty, with even the planet's many alien inhabitants expressing faith in the Empire. Vardos was ruled by Protectorate Gleb with the help of the local Jinata Security.

Vardos was the location of the Future Imperial Leaders Military Preparatory School. Iden attended the school from a young age, and upon graduation finished at the top of her class with honors.

Following the Battle of Endor, Vardos was a target of Operation: Cinder, and saw the defection of Inferno Squad against the Empire.

By 34 ABY, Gleb was overseeing the process of rebuilding the planet, with the capital Kestro still uninhabited. Following Gleb's death at the hands of Commander Gideon Hask, the First Order seized Vardos, however Jinata Security immediately resisted against them.
