A chain of small, sparsely inhabited, planetary systems closely placed next to one another in the Kingdom of Athena.

The region has always been a hotbed of rebellion ever since the Kingdom of Athena claimed the sparsely populated region in the mid 200s. The low level conflict threatened to turn hot in 304 when the House of Athena intercepted two shipments of weapons to the rebels coming from Duke Brutus Malek. Malek only survived because his removal might have threatened civil war in those areas of the kingdom that supported him.

A group of gorilla fighters who held out for over fifty years on Mt. Gauss, on the planet Pontus, against the House of Athena during the war of consolidation.

In the Pax year 314, Duke Malek is known to use their iconography, including their uniforms as a show of force to enforce his demands for more independence for the nobility in the Kingdom of Athena.

(This despite the fact that the Malek family was given the rule of Galatia by the House of Athena at the end of the war.)

The interstellar gate construction mission to the Acadia system, launched August 3, 328 and scheduled to go active on April 1, 375. The mission was piloted by Roger Gillian and Helena Porter who would spend five years ship time before arrival, a time debt of forty-two years.

The Ministry of Defense (MoD) is ministry in charge of defending the Kingdom of Athena from its enemies.

The MoD is comprised of the Admiralty and the Army. The Admiralty has primary responsibility for the non-atmospheric spaces in the kingdom, as well as the myriad of asteroids and stations that use an artificial atmosphere. The Army has primary responsibility for protecting all spaces that have a naturally generated atmosphere. This includes natural atmospheres not breathable by humans.
