History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
The first settlers to Alba were Solomani, moving in during the late Interstellar Wars era. The colonists initially settled Gardon, Villbert, Rog's Planet, and Mansania, with a handful of other worlds colonized during the Rule of Man.
- The collapse of interstellar society in the Long Night hit all of the colonies hard. The world of White eventually formed a small protectorate which lasted until the 500s when the worlds were integrated back into the Imperium.
- In the years before the start of the Solomani Rim War, Alba saw another wave of colonists moving in from Old Expanses Sector, fleeing the troubles along the Solomani Confederation border with the Imperium.
Security & Defense[edit]
The worlds of the region are patrolled by the Solomani Navy. It defends Confederation territory, protects Confederation interests, suppresses piracy, and ensures interstellar trade and commerce.
- Confederation vessels may demand customs inspections.
- Some systems are defended by local naval forces.
The Solomani Navy operates couriers and packet ships to carry communications and mail within the Confederation. Some of the routes they make use of predate the founding of the Solomani Autonomous Region in the early 8th Century, while others have more modern origins, being established following the Solomani Rim War and Solomani independence.
- Multiple communications routes cross the subsector.
