In Galactic Empire, a parsec is the smallest unit of distance. Each sector is 10000x10000 parsecs.
A ship at warp 1 (light speed) travels 153.846153 parsecs per centock. See: Movement.
In real life, a parsec is about 3.26156 light years, meaning that a real life parsec is about 3.167 million Galactic Empire parsecs[1].
