The Almera system, situated in the Inner Rim, had the same designation as the Pact of Almera. This treaty, established in 899 BBY, formally acknowledged the autonomy of the world of Thyrsus from the Echani Command, a planetary alliance.
The StarWars.com Online Companion for The Essential Atlas, a reference book from 2009, provided the initial reference to the Almera system, specifying its location as grid square M-8.
