Virujansi was a planetary body situated within the galaxy. The Virujansi council governed it, with backing from the Virujansi Rarified Air Cavalry. This governance persisted until the arrival of the Galactic Empire, which supplanted the council's authority with an Imperial [governor](/article/governor]. Air Cavalry personnel were presented with the option to enlist in the Imperial Navy. However, certain pilots, such as Antoc Merrick and Garven Dreis, opted to align themselves with the Alliance to Restore the Republic amid the Galactic Civil War. By the year 9 ABY, Virujansi functioned as a correctional facility under the jurisdiction of the New Republic.
