Fondor System
The Fondor System in the Expansion Region. It contains the planet Fondor as well as the Laakteen Depot.

Fondor
An industrial planet in the system of the same name, Fondor is famous for the huge starship construction facilities (among the largest in the galaxy) in its orbit. It was at these starship yards that the droid Bollux was first activated. Later, the Empire took over the Fondor yards, and built the Super Star Destroyer Executor there immediately following the Battle of Yavin. During the Executor's construction, Imperial forces erected a military blockade and closed the system to all civilian traffic. In order to meet supply needs for the massive project, the Empire opened up a new hyperlane between Fondor and Gandeal for cargo traffic. When several Imperial admirals saw the Executor as a blatant bid for power on Darth Vader's part, they tried to sabotage its construction by bringing in a Rebel spy-- Luke Skywalker. Vader trapped the traitorous admirals when their group met with Skywalker in the vast steam tunnels beneath Fondor's surface, but Skywalker managed to escape the planet by stowing away on an automated drone barge.

Laakteen Depot
Laakteen Depot was the Alliance base closest to Fondor, around the time of the Battle of Yavin. It took the Alliance almost a year to capture the depot, which was subsequently wiped out by the Super Star Destroyer Executor during the ship's maiden voyage.

Reeil
The white star that is orbited by Fondor.
