Subsector N of Gateway Sector.

Description[edit]

About half of Ariel Subsector is territory of the Viyard Concourse.

The breakup of the old Galian Trade League had varying effects on the now-independent worlds of Ariel. Some worlds barely noticed, others were fought over or lost vital offworld goods and suffered a drop in technology level.

The subsector is also noted for the homeworld of the Faar, a people who nowadays don't like to leave home but who apparently travelled across the sector and beyond in a previous era.

Summary[edit]

Ariel, subsector N of Gateway, contains 18 worlds with an estimated combined population of 4 billion, a per capita income of Cr3,611, and a total economy of BCr14,812. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr47 through 18 starports (2 Class A, 3 Class B, 10 Class C, 3 Class D) employing 7,350 people. Driving this interstellar trade are three Agricultural (Ag) worlds, one Non-Agricultural (Na) world, three Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Ariel maintain four Naval bases and one Scout base. The average technology level is 8 (with most between 6 and 10). The highest technology level is 13 at Alphaaric (Gateway 1133).

Ariel, subsector N of Gateway, contains 26 stars and 194 identified planets; ten monostellar systems, eight binary systems, no trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 15 of the 18 systems (83%) have native gas giants. There are no Asteroid (As) belts, two Desert (De) worlds, one Garden (Ga) world, one Ice-capped (Ic) world, four Poor (Po) worlds, no Vacuum (Va) worlds, and no Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.

Ariel has an estimated population of 4 billion distributed across one High population (Hi) world, no Moderate population (Ph) worlds, 11 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, three Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Balaclaron (Gateway 1637). The population consists primarily of 3 sophont groups including one native sophont.

3 identified sophont populations in Ariel


Viyard Concourse[edit]

The Viyard Concourse has jurisdiction over nine worlds in the subsector with an estimated combined population of 4 billion, a per capita income of Cr3,656, and a total economy of BCr14,698. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr43 through 9 starports (1 Class A, 2 Class B, 5 Class C, 1 Class D) employing 7,005 people. Driving this interstellar trade are one Agricultural (Ag) world, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, one Pre-Agricultural (Pa) world, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and no Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in the Viyard Concourse maintain one Naval base within the subsector. The average technology level is 8 (with most between 6 and 10). The highest technology level is 11 at Whister (Gateway 1338).

The Viyard Concourse has an estimated population of 4 billion within the subsector, distributed across one High population (Hi) world, no Moderate population (Ph) worlds, four Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, three Low population (Lo) worlds, and no Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population world is Balaclaron (Gateway 1637). The population consists primarily of 1 sophont group.

Non-Aligned, Human-dominated[edit]

There are seven Non-Aligned Human-dominated worlds in Ariel with an estimated combined population of 81 million.

Client state, Third Imperium[edit]

The Client states of the Third Imperium in Ariel encompass one world with an estimated population of less than 1 million.

Galian Federation[edit]

The Galian Federation has jurisdiction over one world in the subsector with an estimated population of less than 1 million, a per capita income of Cr0, and a total economy of BCr0. Driving this economy are no Agricultural (Ag) worlds, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, no Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, no Rich (Ri) worlds, and no Industrial (In) worlds.
