In 20 BBY, during the Clone Wars, the Confederacy of Independent Systems launched an annexation of the Qiilura system. Attempting the block the Confederacy's movements, the Galactic Republic dispatched forces of the 104th Battalion under the command of Clone Commander CC-3636, nicknamed "Wolffe," aboard an Acclamator-class transgalactic military assault ship to the star system. However, Wolffe and his forces were diverted from the Qiilura system to the planet Aleen in order to perform a relief mission and provide aid to its Aleena natives.
The Qiilura system was first mentioned in the current Star Wars canon in the opening newsreel for "Mercy Mission," the fifth episode of the fourth season of the Star Wars: The Clone Wars television series, which aired on October 7, 2011. In the Star Wars Legends continuity, the Qiilura system was introduced in Republic Commando: Hard Contact, a 2004 novel authored by Karen Traviss as the first installment of the Republic Commando multimedia project. It was later first depicted in The Essential Reader's Companion, a 2012 reference book authored by Pablo Hidalgo.
