"The Republic doesn't exist out here;we must survive on our own."
―Shmi Skywalker

The Outer Rim Territories, simply known as the Outer Rim, were located outside the Mid Rim. The Outer Rim was the last widely settled expanse of the galaxy before Wild Space and the Unknown Regions. It was strewn with obscure worlds, and rugged, primitive frontier planets.

History
In the ancient Mandalorian Wars, the Mandalorians chose the Outer Rim to begin their campaign against the Galactic Republic. In 124 BBY, the Galactic Senate declared the Outer Rim to be a free trade zone. In 19 BBY, the Outer Rim Sieges were the last battles of the Clone Wars. Immediately after the formation of the Galactic Empire, three stormtrooper batches were grown in the Outer Rim. Much of the Outer Rim was consolidated under Oversector Outer. Due to its distance from the Core Worlds, the region was home to many supporters of the Rebel Alliance. The Empire's Grand Moff Wilhuff Tarkin was assigned the difficult task of bringing and keeping the Outer Rim Territories in line.

Moff Sarn Shild considered seceding from the Empire and carving out his own empire in the Outer Rim territories once he tapped into the wealth of the Hutt clans.

Trade languages were common in the Outer Rim.

Behind the Scenes
In the first and second drafts of the Star Wars script, the Outer Rim was called the Outlands, and stretched from "the celestial equator to the farthest reaches of the Great Rift". It was the center of resistance to the Empire.
