The Mid Rim, also known as the Mid-Rim, Mid-systems or the Mid Rim Territories, was a region of the galaxy located between the Expansion Region and the Outer Rim Territories. With fewer natural resources—and therefore a smaller population—than many neighboring regions, the Mid Rim was a territory where residents worked hard for everything they had. Several planets built up impressive economies, and pirate raiders often hid in the relatively unexplored spaces far from major trade routes.
The Mid Rim was comprised of over 160 sectors, and a region of free-standing subsectors on its southwestern flanks.
