endsor

Endsor is a fictional planet featured in the Star Wars universe. It is primarily known as the homeworld of the Ewoks, a species of small, furry, bipedal ursinoids. Endsor is a forest moon, characterized by its vast, ancient trees, dense foliage, and a generally temperate climate. The Ewoks have built their civilization within the canopies of these massive trees, creating elaborate villages and walkways suspended high above the forest floor.

The geography of Endsor consists mainly of dense forests, with scattered clearings and rivers. The planet's gravity is lower than that of Earth, which aids the Ewoks in their arboreal lifestyle and their ability to navigate the high branches. The atmosphere is breathable for most known species, though the dense vegetation can make navigation challenging for outsiders. Endsor is home to a variety of flora and fauna, many of which the Ewoks utilize for sustenance and resources.

Endsor gained significant galactic recognition during the Galactic Civil War when it became the site of a pivotal battle. Rebel forces, aided by the Ewoks, successfully defended the moon against an Imperial assault aimed at crushing the Rebel Alliance. This event highlighted the resourcefulness and bravery of the Ewok people and their ability to overcome technologically superior adversaries through their intimate knowledge of their homeworld. The moon's strategic location and the Rebels' reliance on its natural defenses made it an unlikely but crucial theater of war.
