Ord Vaug was a planet in the Expansion Region.
History[]
Ord Vaug was colonized by the Galactic Republic as an Ordnance/Regional Depot sometime before the Pius Dea Era.[3]
The planet was the site of a battle of the Western Reaches Operation during the Imperial Reconquest of the Rim in 17 BBY, made famous to citizens of the Galactic Empire through holodrama productions.[3]
It later served as a prison world for the Empire, until liberated by the Alliance of Free Planets following the Battle of Endor. Ord Vaug was the location of Lilli and Endro, the Venerated Ones of Vandelhelm, while they were held hostage by the Empire to ensure the cooperation of Vandelhelm's metalsmiths. The siblings were rescued by Rebel troops during the liberation of Ord Vaug and transported to their homeworld by Han and Nien Nunb.[4]
