• This world has few prospects for economic development.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Fteiheiel Subsector of Hanstone Sector.

Eistia has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features 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.

World Government (G)
