Vysip Triangle

The Vysip Triangle was a region of space in the, bordering the. It contained thousands of stars and hundreds of mostly uninhabited planets. Some of its worlds, such as Drooft, were inhabited though. Only a few hyperspace routes existed. One of them, The Drooft, was often used by smugglers and pirates.

History
If the Vysip Triangle was even thought about, it was considered to be in a nonstrategic location by most influential beings. It was given its name when the first serious attempts to explore the area began around 15,000 BBY. Even after Drooft was discovered in 14,786 BBY and its fairly advanced Folper population contacted, little interest was garnered for the region. Over the next few millenniums, pirates and smugglers moved into the the triangle and superstitions grew up that more ships mysterious disappeared there than anywhere else, although this was never proven.

During the Jedi Civil War there was some activity in the triangle, mostly around Drooft but it was quickly forgotten until the reign of the Galactic Empire. In 11 BBY an Imperial observation fleet under Commodore Ustibes Kon, established a base on Drooft and patrolled the Vysip Triangle. Captain Bry Veldiun led a raid on the fleet over a decade later. In 1 ABY the Kon's successor, Rear Admiral Errik Sulvooco ordered the mass executions of thousands of supposed enemies of the Empire, leading to one event known as the Drooft Massacres. Sulvooco was later assassinated in 5 ABY and Rear Admiral Traus Land took the observation fleet to the Deep Core, leaving the Vysip Triangle in a new state of obscurity.
