The Gelda system, a star system, resided in the Carrion sector of the Outer Rim Territories. The Relgim Run hyperlane provided a route connecting it to the Delephr and Endoraan systems.
From 4 ABY to 12 ABY, the Gelda system was situated within the [Pentastar Alignment]'s](/article/pentastar_alignment) territory. Later, between 18 ABY and 35 ABY, it became incorporated into the Imperial Remnant. Notably, the system is where Geldan sun-apples originated.
The 2009 reference book The Essential Atlas, authored by Jason Fry and Daniel Wallace, marked the initial mention of the Gelda system, locating it within grid square J-4.
