The Anaxes asteroid belt, also known as the Anaxes asteroid ring, was an asteroid field located in the Azure sector of the galaxy's Outer Rim Territories. It was created when a cataclysmic event destroyed the planet Anaxes after the end of the Clone Wars. One of its asteroids, the planetoid PM-1203, housed Fort Anaxes, an abandoned Galactic Republic military installation that had been located on Anaxes' surface during the Clone Wars.

Description[]

The Anaxes asteroid belt,^[2] otherwise known as the Anaxes asteroid ring,^[8] was an asteroid field located in the Azure system^[3] of the Azure sector^[2] in the Outer Rim Territories. Situated along the Perlemian Trade Route,^[1] the asteroid field was formed from the remains of the destroyed planet Anaxes and was home to colonies of fyrnocks.^[7]

Despite being an asteroid field, several asteroids within maintained trace atmospheres,^[5] including PM-1203, a planetoid that contained Fort Anaxes, a former Galactic Republic military base. The field was also home to another planetoid known as PM-6986, which housed a former Separatist stronghold.^[2]
