Overview

Endor is a forested moon in the Endor system that is forever linked with the decisive battle of the Galactic Civil War.

Geography

Endor is densely forested with giant trees that rise hundreds of meters high. The moon is home to both the gentle Ewoks and the technologically advanced, but morally questionable, Golithor.

The Battle of Endor

The Battle of Endor was the decisive battle of the Galactic Civil War. A group of Rebels landed on Endor to destroy the second Death Star by disabling its shield generator.

The Ewoks, originally dismissed as primitive natives, proved to be fearless warriors and allies of the Rebels.

The Shield Generator

An underground Imperial complex housed the shield generator that protected the second Death Star. Disabling this generator allowed Admiral Ackbar’s fleet to enter the battle.
