Malrev IV

Malrev IV was a planet located in the Thrasybule sector of the Outer Rim Territories. Its history was strongly associated with the Sith.

History

Malrev IV was a focal point for the dark side that served as a vital dark side hub for the Sith. It was the site of several battles during the New Sith Wars. In 1750 BBY, the Jedi Order and Mandalorian mercenaries defeated the forces of the Dark Underlord on the planet. Several centuries later, another battle took place at the beginning of the Light and Darkness War.^[4]

It had a Sith Temple on it visited by Palpatine. After the Battle of Endor, it was used by Cartariun to control the indigenous Irrukiine and attack Rogue Squadron.^[2]
