- "Huh. Cermau. Never heard of it."
- ―Anakin Skywalker
Cermau was a planet[3] located in the Outer Rim Territories, connected to the worlds Bakura, Endor, and Mokivj by hyperspace route.[1]
A Confederacy of Independent Systems freighter set to travel from the planet Batuu to Mokivj listed Cermau as its destination in its navigation systems. When investigating the freighter, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and Chiss Ascendancy Commander Mitth'raw'nuruodo discovered its false destination, and Skywalker commented that he had not heard of the planet before. Mitth'raw'nuruodo deduced that the freighter's true destination was Mokivj, situated on the route between Batuu and Cermau.[3] The author and historian Eloc Throno included Cermau on a map in his book Traveler's Guide to Batuu.[1]

Cermau was first mentioned in the 2018 novel Thrawn: Alliances, written by Timothy Zahn.[3]
