- "Meanwhile, the Mandalorians were rapidly building warships at Breshig and Arda, utilizing vast caches of war matériel stolen during the Sith Wars from Foerost and Abhean."

Breshig was an Outer Rim Territories world situated in the Mandalore sector. Home to the trill beast creatures, it became a part of space controlled by the Mandalorian warrior culture. During the build-up to the Mandalorian Wars of 3976 BBY–3960 BBY, Mandalorian warships were constructed at Breshig. The world's role in the Mandalorian history was eventually noted in Vilnau Teupt's 412th Proceedings of Galactic Anthropology and History keynote address in 24 ABY.
Description[]
- "Recently, a random spot check aboard the luxury liner Alamintari, bound for the Outer Rim Territories, uncovered 10 kilos of rare Garcornian spice and a pre-recorded sound chip of a Breshig trill beast."

Breshig was a world[4] located in the Breshig system, a part of the Mandalore sector[1] in the Trans-Hydian portion of[2] the Outer Rim Territories.[1] It was the homeworld of the creatures known as trill beasts.[3]
History[]
- "Those worlds—along with the likes of Hrthging, Breshig, Shogun, and Ordo—became part of Mandalorian Space."
- ―Vilnau Tept, 412th Proceedings of Galactic Anthropology and History
The Mandalorian Neo-Crusaders (banner pictured) constructed warships at Breshig.
Breshig at one point came into contact with the Mandalorian Crusaders, the warriors of a culture originating with the Taung species and waging the interstellar war-worship–based campaign known as the Mandalorian Crusades since 7000 BBY. As a result, the world became one of the several to become part of Mandalorian-controlled space. Later, the members of the Mandalorian Neo-Crusader movement constructed warships at Breshig and other sites during the build-up for their 3976 BBY–3960 BBY conflict against the Galactic Republic.[4]
Sometime between 0 ABY and 3 ABY,[5] the fiftieth-anniversary edition of Galladinium's Galactic Datalog of Fantastic Technology noted a recent incident where a pre-recorded sound chip of a trill beast from Breshig was used to conceal the transportation of Garcornian spice in a T-P-C4 Live Organism Comfort Conveyor aboard the luxury liner Alamintari.[3] Vilnau Teupt eventually mentioned Breshig and its involvement in the Mandalorian history in the keynote address "Industry, Honor, Savagery: Shaping the Mandalorian Soul" at Brentaal Academy's 412th Proceedings of Galactic Anthropology and History in 24 ABY.[4]
Behind the scenes[]
Breshig's name was first mentioned in Galladinium's Fantastic Technology, a 1995 sourcebook authored by Rick D. Stuart for use with West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[3] The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas placed the Breshig system, and therefore Breshig itself, in grid square O-7.[2] The 2012 reference book The Essential Guide to Warfare by Jason Fry and Paul R. Urquhart was the first to establish Breshig as a distinct world.[4]
