The Meram Sector represented a specific sector within the galaxy. Following Captain Lindon Javes' act of treachery against his squadron during a battle that occurred at Fostar Haven, the Galactic Empire transferred Lieutenant Terisa Kerrill to the Meram Sector in what was considered a "disgraceful" move; her assignment was to safeguard fuel shipments from minor criminals and pirates, a type of assignment that typically spelled the end of one's career.
The initial reference to the Meram Sector within Star Wars Canon appeared in the video game Star Wars: Squadrons released in 2020. In Star Wars Legends, the first mention of the Meram sector was in the Galaxy Guide 11: Criminal Organizations published in 1994.
