Zeda is the namesake of the Zeda subsector, the homeworld of the Ziadd, an important industrial center, and a major tourist attraction.

Most cities are dominated by networks of citadel-fortresses, and most feel more like giant living museums than highly-advanced industrial centers.

Zeda has a solitary primary star.
