Description[]
Ulicia was a drab industrial world located in the Ulicia system of the Outer Rim Territories. The planet was part of the Trans-Hydian region's Corporate Sector and was situated on the fringes of the Thandon Nebula, an area of space that the Corporate Sector Authority had struggled to develop.[1]
Positioned near the planet Abo Dreth,[3] Ulicia was connected to the Atchorb system by the hyperlane known as the Shaltin Tunnels, while another hyperlane linked the planet to the Abo Dreth and Perin systems. Additionally, Ulicia served as the last point on these hyperspace routes before leaving Corporate Sector borders and entering Wild Space and Trianii Space, respectively.[1]
