{{UWP|name=Enos/Sword Worlds (Spinward Marches 1130)

Enos is a member of the Sword Worlds Confederation, despite lying a long way from the core of the Sword Worlds, and despite being a poor planet of little value. It has a population of around 700,000 people, whose main occupation is mining petrochemicals or servicing the miners.

Petrochemical mining on Enos is a dangerous occupation and leads to a somewhat fatalistic attitude among those who undertake this work. This is made worse by the need to import almost all supplies and equipment from off-world. Since the end of the Fifth Frontier War this role has generally been undertaken by Imperial or Free Traders as Sword Worlds technology is not up to long range space voyages, and the Sword Worlds are currently mor interested in reestablishing the stability of the confederation.

A Sword World base does still exist on Enos but only with a skeleton crew. Nominally its function is to prevent the misuse of the base by pirates or similar roughnecks, but it is doubtful whether it is sufficiently well-staffed to do so.
