Politics and Diplomacy : Milieu 1116
This entire subsector is outside the boundaries of the Imperium; all worlds should be treated as Travel Zone Amber by Imperial citizens.
At the rimward edge of the Querion subsector, territorial claims have been pressed for Winston, Entrope, and Anselhome by both the Sword Worlds Confederation and the Darrian Confederation; Imperial diplomatic backing has been given the Darrian claim, although Zhodani interference has thus far thwarted any resolution of the situation.
The Imperium has long maintained (since 556) a research station in the Retinae system for the purposes of communications research. Accessed from Frenzie/Vilis via Thanber, the station has frequently figured in Zhodani diplomatic protests. Its long-standing presence at Retinae and the steadfastness of the Emperor has served to maintain its continued operation.
Querion, subsector E of Spinward Marches contains 21 worlds with an estimated population of 19 billion, a per capita income of Cr3,863, and a total economy is BCr73,898. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr5 through 13 starports (0 Class A, 6 Class B, 6 Class C, 1 Class D) employing 1,310 people. Driving this interstellar trade are three Agricultural (Ag) worlds, no Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, two Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, no Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, two Rich (Ri) worlds, and one Industrial (In) world. The governments in Querion maintain three Military bases, and two Naval bases. The average technology level is 7 (with most between 5 and 10). The highest technology level is 12 at Lebeau (Spinward Marches 0613) and Thanber (Spinward Marches 0717).
Querion, subsector E of Spinward Marches contains 33 stars and 205 identified planets; nine monostellar systems, 12 binary systems, no trinary systems, and no systems with four or more stars. 13 of the 21 systems (61%) have native gas giants.
