A non-industrial Imperial world located in the Aramis Subsector of the Spinward Marches. In addition to Dhian Startown, the other major settlement on Dhian is Hushkim Town. The X-boat service is present here.



Oberlindes Lines and Tukera Lines, attracted by the X-boat terminus are competeing for shipping and passengers to nearby and predominantly coreward high population worlds. (Wochiers 2207, Algine 2308, Rethe 2408, Inthe 2410, Treece 2311). 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 starports plus throughout Aramis & Regina sub-sectors.

Imperiallines tramp traders maintains an office providing feeder routes to 16 secondary systems (class C starports or less) within 4 parsecs (Focaline 2607 or Violante 2708 via Paya 2509). J1 and J2 tramp freighters provide the workhorses. Service can be irregular, but will often adapt to the needs of specific clients.
