The Sluis system (pronounced /'slu.i/), also known as the Sluis Van system, was the central star system in the Sluis sector of the Outer Rim Territories. The system's primary planet was Sluis Van.

HistoryEdit

The system withdrew from the Republic to join the CIS before the Clone Wars. Its senator at that time was Corlissi Ludar.^[2]

In 9 ABY, the system was the site of a battle with Grand Admiral Thrawn during his campaign against the New Republic.^[3]

Behind the scenesEdit

The PC game Star Wars: Rebellion mistakenly places the Sluis sector and, consequently, the Sluis system, in the Galactic Core.

The name was first pronounced in Timeline 6: Onslaught of the Sith Empire, in reference to the Sluis sector.
