Locations
The territory in Riftspace covers just a tiny fraction of the galaxy, but that little blot in the Orion Arm consists of thousands of star systems stretched across a vast arc of space. Within it are thousands of planets, spatial anomalies and special regions of note. Below are some of the most important and interesting worlds and regions.

This is the main government and territory ruled by humanity. It is divided into several sectors, each with a few core planets.
