World Starport[edit]
Aqua Marina has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

Historical Data[edit]
The storied Galastrian Metals corporation collapsed during a workers' revolt on Tharver in 302, but within three years the League Concord had been signed, establishing the Galian Trade League, a trade corporation which essentially took over most of Galastrian's former holdings under looser reigns of authority and control. By the mid-500s, the League incorporated all of what is today the Galian Federation, the Plavian League, the Trindel Confederacy, and the coreward worlds of the Viyard Concourse.
By 900, various factors -- including the loss of several breakaway states and the rise of piracy -- had brought about a serious weakening of the Galian Trade League. Full-fledged civil war broke out in 911, leading to the break-up of the League and the founding of the modern Galian Federation in 925.
