Vardoss IV

Vardoss IV, also known simply as Vardoss, was a celestial body located in the Vardoss system, a part of the Expansion Region's Vardoss sector. A hyperlane linked it to the Horob system as well as the Neshei system of the neighboring Neshei sector.

During the first campaigns of the Clone Wars in 22 BBY, the Sixth Sector Army of the Galactic Republic was tasked with engaging the military forces of the Confederacy of Independent Systems in space surrounding Vardoss IV. Three years later, a Galactic Empire military force led by the Imperial Navy admiral Terrinald Screed and the Imperial Army general Hurst Romodi intercepted at Vardoss IV a Separatist holdout force fleeing to the Unknown Regions. In a famous confrontation known as the Assault on Vardoss IV, the Imperials routed their opponent. The celestial body subsequently came to be situated within Imperial borders by 17 BBY and was also located in the territory of the New Republic by 13 ABY.
