Ilelish Sector is the home of a number of powerful races, peoples, and influential nobles. Interstellar commerce and trade are quite rich in much of this region. This [[astrographic area]] boasts of an impressive growth rate and quality of life.  
 +
 +
=== Astrographic Features & Trade Routes ===
 +
The following [[astrographic feature|astrographic]] and [[trade route|commercial]] data regarding the sector has been determined:
 +
* The [[rimward]] edge of the sector is a rift density region.
 +
* The brightest star in the sector is the unstable red giant primary of the [[Eralt (world)|Eralt system]].
 +
* Important [[trade route]]s within the region include the [[Great Ilelish Main]] and the [[Gushemege Main]].
 +
** The [[Vilani Main]] crosses the very [[spinward]]-[[coreward]] edge of the sector.
 +
 +
==== Stellar Distribution ====
 +
A basic map showing the distribution and size of [[star]]s within Ilelish Sector.
 +
* The color corresponds to the visible color of the star, which links to its spectral classification.
 +
* The size as shown indicates both the physical size of the object and its relative brightness.
 +
 +
[[File:Chart Ilelish Sector Stellar Distribution Basic Updated.png|400 px]] <br> (Chart sourced from Traveller Map).
 +
 +
Note that the stars as depicted are representative. Any star, no matter what its size, is a mere speck within the hex it occupies.
 +
* Ordinary main sequence stars can barely be seen from even a hex away.
 +
* Huge, intensely luminous giant stars can be seen from across the sector and far beyond.
 +
 +
==== Rifts & Voids ====
 +
The sector lies on the [[trailing]] side of the [[Great Rift]].
 +
* [[Great Rift|The rift]] hinders travel and commerce within the region.
 +
* It has placed a boundary on {{Imperial}} settlement and expansion within the area.
 +
* Due to its position relative to the [[Great Rift|Rift]], the region is sometimes referred to as being ''[[Within The Claw]]''{{Unpublished cite|author= Ade Stewart}}.
 +
 +
A basic map showing the general extent of the [[Great Rift]].
 +
 +
[[File:Chart Great Rift Basic.png|400 px]] <br> (Chart sourced from Traveller Map.)
 +
 +
The nature and limits of the rift may be determined by different criteria in different regions.
 +
* Generally, its boundaries are based on [[Jump Drive|jump performance]].
 +
* Areas may traditionally be considered [[Great Rift|rift regions]], even though all of their worlds are accessible to ships equipped with [[Jump Drive|high performance drives]].
 +
 +
=== World Listings ===
 +
Comprehensive [[Second Survey]] [[UWP|UWP data]] for all worlds lying within the sector is available.
 +
* The primary source material for all data is [[Traveller Map]].
 +
* Other sources may contain contradictory or incorrect information.
 +
 +
{{SectorWorlds2|Ilelish|Sector}}
 +
 +
Note that some [[Second Survey]] data, though only [[Year|40 years]] old, is likely to be out of date.
 +
* Data is occasionally updated as new information becomes available.
 +
* Scouting missions gathering reliable, verified data can receive substantial payment.
 +
* Verified updated data is constantly sought.
 +
 +
== Economic Astrography ==
 +
Corporations active here include the following:
 +
 +
* ''Bikirru Planetary Engineering'': A [[Suerrat]] corporation that designs and implements microbes to assist in terraforming specific worlds.
 +
 +
* ''Dozite-Godu Designer Pets and Companions'': A [[Suerrat]] corporation that creates genetically engineered animal companions to specific client briefs.
 +
 +
* ''Ilelish Free Trade Group'': A loose, decentralised alliance of smaller producers and manufacturers.
 +
 +
[[File:Logo Llelish Interstellar Information Interchange Basic.png|200 px|right]]
 +
* ''[[Llelish Interstellar Information Interchange]]'', a news and media organization which keeps close tabs on the activities and personal lives of the [[Noble|rich and titled]].
 +
 +
* ''Zagshiir Industries'': A heavy industrial concern, with foundries and production facilities on several worlds in the spinward part of the sector.
 +
 +
A number of trade routes exist within this area. Of these, the most important are:
 +
 +
==== The Great Ilelish Main ====
 +
The [[Great Ilelish Main]] has 104 member worlds and runs between [[Verge Sector|Verge]] and Ilelish Sectors.
 +
 +

 +
* Worlds lying on the [[Main]] are highlighted in green.
 +
* [[Dlan (world)|Dlan]], the [[capital]] of the [[Domain of Ilelish]], is marked in red.
 +
 +
==== The Gushemege Main ====
 +
The [[Gushemege Main]] has 213 member worlds and runs between [[Gushemege Sector|Gushemege]], [[Dagudashaag Sector|Dagudashaag]], [[Zarushagar Sector|Zarushagar]], and Ilelish Sectors.

Before the [[Vilani]] arrived here, the [[Suerrat]] had built the [[Suerrat Republic]], a fledgling interstellar empire based upon democratic values, which was reduced to a subject state within a few decades as the [[Consolidation Wars]] began. However, while the [[Vilani]] certainly conquered the area, those early [[Vilani]] conquerors were kinder than most and left behind a legacy of positive institutions that survives to this day. 
 +
* The [[Suerrat]] eventually took to being a subordinate polity within larger interstellar empires and developed their own government within larger governments, which has now been a successful practice for several millennia. The [[Suerrat]] now thrive and their merchants range the lengths of the Imperium, and all in spite of a generalized prejudice against what many mainstream humans feel is an atavistic appearance.

 +
The following races ([[sophont]] species) are believed to have originated within this area:
 +
* [[Humaniti]] (Human races)
 +
** [[Suerrat]] of [[Ilelish (world)|Ilelish]]: a short, strong, hirsute, homely [[Minor Human Race]] that had a multi-world [[Jump Drive|pre-jump drive]] civilization prior to contact with the still expanding and exploring [[Vilani]]. The Suerrat would use purchased Jump Drive to rival the Vilani before being subjugated and becoming part of the [[First Imperium|Ziru Sirka]].

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Comp-Prog-Dav-R-Deitrick-Starter-Trav-Page-16 16-July-2018a.jpg

Before the Vilani arrived here, the Suerrat had built the Suerrat Republic, a fledgling interstellar empire based upon democratic values, which was reduced to a subject state within a few decades as the Consolidation Wars began. However, while the Vilani certainly conquered the area, those early Vilani conquerors were kinder than most and left behind a legacy of positive institutions that survives to this day.

  • The Suerrat eventually took to being a subordinate polity within larger interstellar empires and developed their own government within larger governments, which has now been a successful practice for several millennia. The Suerrat now thrive and their merchants range the lengths of the Imperium, and all in spite of a generalized prejudice against what many mainstream humans feel is an atavistic appearance.
  • The Graytch were later comers, but have long been a peaceful part of the region.
