The Gulf of Siridor is an astrographic feature lying across two subsectors within Mavuzog Sector.
- It is a rift area of low stellar density.
- It is a barrier to interstellar trade and commerce.
Description (Specifications)
The Gulf of Siridor is a region of low stellar density within the rimward edge of Galaxa Subsector and the central and coreward parts of Siridor Subsector.
- The Gulf has rough dimensions of 7 parsecs coreward-rimward by 7 parsecs spinward-trailing.
- It hampers interstellar trade.
- It forms a natural obstacle to Jaibok expansion.
