The Dressel system, a star system situated in the Mid Rim, was the location of the planet Dressel, which served as the original homeworld for the Dressellians. In addition to Dressel, this system also featured an asteroid belt abundant with mineral resources, initially mined by Bothan entities following its mapping by their scouts around 200 BBY. By approximately 10 BBY, both Dressel and its accompanying asteroid belt had fallen under the dominion of the Imperial forces. The Empire's seizure of Dressel proved especially burdensome due to the Rebel-backed Dressellian resistance.
