- "But sir, the Hoth system is supposed to be devoid of Human forms."
- ―Captain Firmus Piett, to Admiral Kendal Ozzel[src]
The Hoth system was a remote star system located on the fringe of the Ivax Nebula in the Anoat Sector of the Greater Javin in the Granita Cluster, along the Ison Trade Corridor at the edge of the Outer Rim Territories.[source?] The Hoth system was the one-time location of the Alliance to Restore the Republic's Echo Base; and in 3 ABY, the Battle of Hoth, a crushing defeat of the Rebellion by the Galactic Empire, led by Darth Vader.[1]
The system was comprised of six planets, including a wide and chaotic asteroid belt at the farthest orbit. Debris from this belt caused substantial meteorite activity on the planet Hoth.[1]
The Hoth system was possibly named after Hoth, the famous Jedi Master.
