History and Background[edit]

Boreal is part of the Diadem Trade League agreement, but has balked at surrendering control to a multi-system organisation based on and led by Baixing, leaving the League a loose arrangement.

World Starport[edit]

Boreal has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
