Description (Astrography & Planetology)
History & Background (Dossier)
In addition to Dhian Startown, the other major settlement on Dhian is Hushkim Town.
Subsector headquarters of Imperiallines.
Oberlindes Lines and Tukera Lines, attracted by the X-boat terminus are competing for shipping and passengers to nearby and predominantly coreward high population worlds. (Wochiers, Algine, Rethe, Inthe, Treece). Tukera's interest stops at these worlds, as a Megacorp,preferring to stay close to the X-boat route. Whilst Oberlindes continues to service high pop worlds and class C plus starports throughout Aramis and Regina sub-sectors.
Imperiallines tramp traders maintain an office providing feeder routes to 16 secondary systems (class C starports or less) within 4 parsecs (Focaline or Violante via Paya). J1 and J2 tramp freighters provide the workhorses. Service can be irregular, but will often adapt to the needs of specific clients.
