Other than food, Cryer Pharmaceuticals have also established a base in this system, concentrating on the production of pharmaceuticals. On the other side, this system heavily consumes diamonds, optical chips and alien organisms. In fact, a very short and lucrative run of commodity involves transporting diamonds from [[Rheinland]] to this system or Leeds.

For these reasons the [[Bundschuh]] have placed their base in this system, and it is used by other pirates to attack opportunity targets making a quite dangerous travel for traders. It is also rumored to contain a military research facility.

===[[Planet Cambridge]]===
+
===[[Planet Holstein]]===
: A serene, beautiful planet covered in lush, green plains and deep blue oceans, planet Cambridge is eminently suited to human colonisation. Settled during the colony's formative years, the planet is largely given over to farming and scientific concerns, with heavy industry of any kind strictly prohibited. It is also home to the Cambridge Research Institute, a science academy that is devoted to pure scientific research. Many important scientific breakthroughs have occurred on Cambridge through the Institute, without which the Bretonian food shortages would also be considerably more severe. Thanks to advances in crop engineering, Cambridge is also now the primary food producer for the entire of Bretonia.
+
: Initially charted in the original exploration of the Frankfurt system in 82 A.S., the planet Holstein was ignored for centuries by the government as its primary concern was the industrial development of Rheinland. Eventually, with the help of prominent politicians on New Berlin, Kruger Minerals succeeded in obtaining the financial loans from Interspace Commerce in order to terraform Holstein, which started in 519 A.S.

: Smaller than some asteroids, the Ross Planetoid exists at a gravitational sink where ice fragments have collected over the millennia and begun to compact under their own weight into the seed of what might eventually become a planet.

Deep sonar surveys have shown the presence of rare gases in vast frozen fields; however, they are located kilometers beneath the planet's surface making them impossible to collect. The Cardiff Mining Facility orbits the planet, collecting beryllium from nearby asteroid fields.
+
: A moon of the planet Holstein, Stulingen is a hot, dry world warmed by internal volcanic processes. With no atmosphere capable of supporting life and no known valuable resources, it is highly unlikely that anyone will attempt to construct any facilities planetside. Republican Shipping constructed Mainz Storage Facility in orbit to conduct shipping transfers between the GMG and Rheinland.

: The Westerwald cloud is a massive, copper coloured nebula, covering the west side of Frankfurt. Bundschuh and Unioners are prolific within the cloud, launching attacks against the Mainz Storage Facility.  Military forays into the cloud have also become more frequent in recent times.  The government claims that they are searching for a supposed jump hole, but there are rumours that the government is operating a clandestine base within the cloud.  Due to the cloud's utility as a staging ground, the military has instituted measures to keep civilian traffic away from the area.  All who enter do so of their own volition and should not expect to find friends within, whether military or otherwise.

Three months after that, sympathetic maintenance workers started sabotaging Daumann manufacturing operations in New Berlin. The industrial heart of Rheinland stopped beating, and the Popular Revolution had begun.

For these reasons the Bundschuh have placed their base in this system, and it is used by other pirates to attack opportunity targets making a quite dangerous travel for traders.

Bruchsal Base

Believed to be founded by a group of New Berlin University students in 679 AS, the movement had much support among the liberal elite of New Berlin, tired of the corrupt practices of the government that had led them to financial ruin near the end of the 80-Years War. During the Dresden rebellion of 700 AS, the Bundschuh found their first official cause -- shipping supplies "liberated" from Frankfurt to the Kruger and Daumann rebels. Three months after that, sympathetic maintenance workers started sabotaging Daumann manufacturing operations in New Berlin. The industrial heart of Rheinland stopped beating, and the Popular Revolution had begun.

Battleship Koblenz

After the Nomad war ended in 802 A.S., the resulting economic upswing in all four Houses finally gave Rheinland the financial stability to begin reconstructing its capital ship fleet. With the commissioning of the Battleship Westfalen in 803 A.S., the first of the Bismarck class, it wasn't long before more followed it. The Battleship Koblenz was launched in 809 A.S. and was immediately stationed in orbit of the planet Holstein to protect Daumann interests from the Red Hessians.

Schatten Research Facility

Schatten Research Facility was constructed some time during the year 803 A.S., but beyond that, nobody seems to be able to agree on much more. The base is well protected within the alien minefield in the Frankfurt system, virtually inaccessible save for one entry passage.
