Astrographic EntryHutt Space

Hutt Space is an infamous region of the galaxy — regarded as a sector astrographically — on the border between the Mid Rim and the Outer Rim Territories, near the entrance to Wild Space. It encompasses the Si'Klaata Cluster and borders the Tion Hegemony. Hutt Space is named for the Hutt species who have traditionally dominated the region. Differing accounts attribute different numbers of planets in Hutt Space, but reasonable estimates range from a few hundred to a thousand inhabited worlds.[1] The region is currently governed by the Eidola Pirates.

History

Imperial Dominion

Circa Year 3, Hutt Space was primarily controlled by the rapacious Hutt Council, an Imperial Suzerainty, led by Angobba Desilijic Lucar.[2] During the chaotic aftermath of the Second Imperial Civil War, Emperor Charon of the Galactic Empire granted the Council control of the Tatoo system as a reward for their assistance against Warlord Vodo Bonias' Dark Empire and Melukien Tar’Shakaar's Chimaera Order. Acknowledging Charon's magnanimous gift, Angobba the Hutt appointed Regnar Lodbrog as governor of the system and implemented laws deterring further settlements in the area. He reiterated that Council territories were protectorates of Charon's Empire and that Imperial shock-troops would remain garrisoned to preserve law and order.[3]

Eidolan Haunt

When Emperor Charon was overthrown, the Hutt Council lost their most affluent patron and, subsequently, control of Hutt Space. Recognizing that the loss of Imperial sponsorship had weakened the Council, the fearsome Eidola Pirates led by Teniel Djo quickly invaded the territory in Year 5 and waged a relentless campaign to eliminate the Hutts. The first individual targeted by the Eidola Pirates was Regnar Lodbrog, the Hutts' hand-picked governor of Tatooine.[4] The corpse of Lodbrog was delivered by Eidola to authorities on the planet Saubrant in the Kessel system. Shortly thereafter, law enforcement officers detained a Falleen trader identified as Soge Kihei, a purported Eidolan associate, for questioning. Kihei later confessed to being an Eidolan blaster-for-hire and to murdering Lodbrog. During a subsequent interview, Kihei revealed Lodbrog's execution was the first step in "Eidola's continuing efforts at eliminating its competition."[4] With the encroachment of Eidola Pirates into Hutt Space, the Hutt Council's decline was accelerated. Many of its members were assassinated by Eidola Pirates or rival syndicates in Hutt Space.
