History and background

The world is wholly owned by Imperiallines, used by it executives and VIPs as a sabbatical retreat. Under the charter of ownership, the planet should never support a population of greater than 10,000, and never more than 10,000 visitors on world.

To aid this charter Imperiallines lobbied for an Amber Zone classification which was incorrectly granted in 505. When settled after the Long Night by the one of the forerunner corporations to Imperiallines a planetary charter was written to preserve Ekha's great, pristine beauty. All development and building would take place below ground in the great caverns. For 600 years the planet has been in a legal battle with the IISS over the classification.

Trade Data

The Imperiallines subsidiary Medurma Main StarLines is the only merchant line that provides service to Ekha.
