Vjun was a planet^[4] located in the galaxy's Outer Rim Territories in grid square Q-6 on the Standard Galactic Grid,^[1] situated between Lucazec and Phindar along the Salin Corridor hyperspace route.^[2] In the wake of the Emergences of the Great Hyperspace Disaster during the High Republic Era, Vjun was among many locations in the Outer Rim whose hospitals were overrun with victims.^[3] It was home to the famous tailors who wove Count Dooku's elegant cloak.^[4] At some point, Dooku dueled Jedi Master Yoda on the planet, and before making a tactical withdrawal, he accomplished the nearly impossible by wounding his former Master.^[5]
