Background information
The name Fezzan is a reference to the Fezzan region of south-western Libya. The choice of name was likely deliberate: Like its fictional counterpart, the real Fezzan served as an important trade link between two larger powers, and later became a 'client state' of Rome (analogous to the planet's former status as an autonomous dominion within the Empire).
