The Bnar system existed within the Braxant sector, which itself was situated in the New Territories region of the Outer Rim Territories. Bnar VII was an astronomical body found within this system.
During the Galactic Civil War, the slaver Tir'uh had a career that lasted for decades. During that time, her operations stretched across the galaxy, from Bnar VII in the northern reaches of the galaxy, to the planet Kessel in the eastern part of the galaxy. The Bnar system was within the boundaries of the Pentastar Alignment between 4 ABY and 12 ABY. Later, from 18 ABY to 35 ABY, it was part of the territory under the control of the Imperial Remnant.
The reference book The Essential Atlas, written by Daniel Wallace and Jason Fry in 2009, was the first source to mention the Bnar system, locating it in grid square K-3.
