Deep Core

From the Encyclopedia of Speculative Fiction - http://encyclopedia.wizards.pro

Hidden within the densely packed mass of stars at the very heart of the galaxy, the Deep Core (a.k.a. Core Systems) is a small region that hides unusual worlds. Due to the gravitational pull of the vast number of stars, local space-time is severely warped, making hyperspace travel difficult at best. The region was thought to be inaccessible until Emperor Palpatine found several safe hyperlanes into the region. The area remained an Imperial stronghold almost twenty years after the Battle of Endor.
