History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
This is one of the five worlds at the undisputed heart of Human civilization in coreward Phlask. Hollerith, Heathleah, Gradule, Alva, and Ordred dominate the region. Dating from the latter years of the Rule of Man, boosted by those fleeing the economic decay of the early Long Night, they form a distinct and prosperous cultural region beholden to no major power.
Abundant resources, robust industry, a massive population and a welcoming culture make Hollerith one of the most important non-aligned worlds in Phlask Sector. Navigating the complexities of its deeply layered culture can however be difficult; this, along with the natural environment, earned the world its Amber Zone travel rating.
