A map of the Empire's 20 Quadrants.

The Empire occupies a total space of approximately 10,260,000 cubic light years (10,265,234), and is comprised of around 32,000 star systems, all of which have been inhabited and terraformed where possible. It borders the Zelvan Regime and the Treecuu Star Empire to the South, the Star Empire Of Calerost to the East and Ferristia to the West.

Imperial Core

The Core Worlds are the oldest planets, moons and habitats of the Galactyan Empire. All of them have very high populations and are very historically important.

A list of the various Imperial Core Worlds can be found here: List Of The Galactyan Core Systems & Worlds

Imperial Major Worlds

Thanks to being located near important trading routes or being the place where a first contact with another nation happened, other six worlds beside the Core Worlds and Galactya have become of relevant importance to the Empire bot in matters of economy and tourism. These are:

  • Korelapolat, famous for the Calerost First Contact and for it's large exports of rare minerals from the barren world of Nuspi. Over the years it has become a major trading hub with Calerost.
  • Kairmios, famous for the Drakari First Contact and for it's special Security Sensors Outpost. It's one of the oldest commercial nexuses of the Empire, and it had been far before the first contact. It is now an important trading hub with the Drakari Imperium.
  • Ulnuibes, famous for the Ferristia First Contact, for it's exports of Nebulae Gases and for being the old capital of the U'Lnuibian Hegemony. It's now a major trading hub with Ferristia and an important Scientific Research Nexus. It has an orbital ring and a series of other orbital stations and habitats dedicated to the joint research.
  • Nethul, famous for the Emerald First Contact and for it's exports of rare gases from it's system's gas giants, it also has a relevant position as the Main World of the Northern Frontier. It's now a major trading hub with the Union Of Emerald.
  • Lunalkirex, famous for it's position as the Main World of the Southern Frontier and for it's rich mining operation. It has become a major trading hub with the Akropii Grand Republic.
  • Gharribuik, famous for it's Orbital Weaponry Production operations. It has become an important internal trading hub and exports checkpoint.

Administrative divisions

The Empire is divided into 20 Quadrants, each containing around 1600 Star Systems. The Quadrants all have a certain degree of autonomy, but still have to report immediately to the Emperors. Quadrant 1 is considered the most Important Quadrant in the Empire, since it's there that he Capital Homeworld is located and it's there that the Quadrant Assembly meets at the start of every year. Quadrants 3, 8, 11 and 12 are the densest and most potentially dangerous areas of the Empire due to the presence of the Molecular Clouds, so public transport vessels going through those areas must be outfitted with special protection coating. The areas can still be traversed without extra protection, but the chances of an accident due to collisions or density fatigue are much higher.

In 0 BBT Quadrant 11, in which is located the Taivaallinen Wormhole, had been deemed a "high-danger zone" due to the events of the Wormhole War, with travel greatly restricted and with only necessary supply flights for the colonies closer to the Wormhole allowed. This ban had however been lifted after the Sereniani retreat and the start of the construction of the Belt Of Thaievia. The restrictions were abandoned a couple of months later.
