The Corvis Minor system, situated within the borders of the Ciutric Hegemony, was comprised of seven planets. Among these were Corvis Minor III, Corvis Minor IV, Corvis Minor V, and the central star itself, Corvis Minor. Beyond the orbit of the fifth planet lay an asteroid belt.
The historical record of the Corvis Minor system was, for the most part, unexceptional. Within Imperial archives, one could find a container cleverly disguised as a collection of datacard sets entitled The Complete History of Corvis Minor. However, the box's true contents were a compact emergency blaster.
While escaping the Lusankya, Corran Horn acquired a blaster hidden within a Corvis Minor history box located in Ysanne Isard's personal library aboard the vessel. His observation was that if a blaster represented the entirety of the planet's history, it was unlikely to be a desirable destination for leisure. Subsequently, during the Thrawn campaign, Mara Jade leveraged her familiarity with Imperial protocols to procure a blaster from a library situated on a residential level of the Imperial Palace, after deducing that the Palace had been compromised by Imperial operatives.
