History & Background (Dossier)
Originally known as District 267, the subsector is only sparsely settled, and depends upon Imperial payrolls for most of its internal economy.
- Some colonization attempts were begun under the auspices of Emperor Paulo I in 740, but all developmental activity was stopped under the Psionics Suppressions of 800.
The New Era (Click Show to reveal)
The subsector's development lagged as a result of tensions with the Zhodani, and has only begun to open up since the Collapse. Much of its immigration has been undertaken by back to nature groups, and entrepreneurs of varying character. Quarantine regulations for extra-Regency trade is relaxed to permit greater trade, but then has to pass through a number of different quarantine posts in order to pass to the Regency safe.
