History & Background (Dossier)

Saxe (SR 1437) is a high-population Solomani Confederation world, part of the Near Boötes Cluster.

Saxe was colonized during the Rule of Man by ethnic European immigrants from Germany and Spain. During the Long Night, cultural divisions led to the balkanization of the planet into seven different nations; the largest and most powerful are Mondragon and New Bavaria. The planet's major starport, Weishaupt Down, is located in New Bavaria and is also the headquarters of Saxe Transport, the subsector's largest merchant firm.

World Starport (Sp)

Saxe has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
