Astrographic Features & Trade Routes: 1116
The following astrographic features and trade routes can be found within this subsector: In the early years of Marches exploration, the Spinward Main route through District 268 was the only viable route for jump-1 ships trading with the Imperial worlds in the Glisten Subsector. The Main forks into two branches at Talos (Spinward Marches 1436): the Collace Arm runs Spinward toward Five Sisters, while the Glisten Arm runs Trailing.
Although jump-2 and jump-3 traffic is more economical, enough jump-1 ships plied these routes to create a trickle of settlement. In time, several important worlds grew up along the route:
- Forine (Spinward Marches 1533/D3129B8-A) - an industrial world producing electronics components;
- Tarkine (Spinward Marches 1434/C466662-7) - an agricultural producer of exotic spices; and
- Collace (Spinward Marches 1237/B628943-D) - an industrial world producing a wide variety of low-cost, high-tech goods.
Collace is also the site of one of several Imperial scout bases in the district. Application has been made for membership in the Imperium, which is pending.
