Pennsylvania was originally settled by Zoners. Liberty's interest in the system gradually grew and House influence increased steadily until the System was heavily patrolled by the Liberty Police and Navy and was declared an independent system under Liberty protection. Thought dissent is prevalent among Zoners, any real resistance is beyond practical possibility.

Areas of Interest
Nebulae
Hallam Nebula
A beautiful and complex nebula that contains the Ralston Ice Field.
Asteroid Fields
Appalachian Asteroid Field
Appalachian Asteroid Field is a place where New York Jump Gate in Pennsylvania is located. The gate and nearby trade lane made this area popular with pirates, most notably Liberty Rogues. It is rumored that a Rogue base is located in one of the remote regions of this large field. Despite the dangers, Appalachian is an asset of value for freelancers and small shipping companies: central part of the field is rich with hydrocarbons that can be mined from asteroids without much effort. Quantities of hydrocarbons are not sufficient for industrial extraction, and larger companies did not show interest in using local deposits.
Driftwood Ice Asteroid Field
A large field of ice asteroids on the outskirts of the Pennsylvania system. Xeno activity is significant within the field.
Meadville Ice Asteroid Field
Meadville is a medium-sized field of ice asteroids with no traces of valuable resources. It is rumored that one of the largest asteroids has been converted into a base by one of the Liberty pirate factions, most probably Xenos. Meadville also contains a jump hole leading from Pennsylvania into Texas system, but explorers should be aware that its exit is located within the hazardous Pequena Negra nebula.
Ralston Ice Field
Ralston Ice Field is located within the Hallam Nebula. The field is notable for significant amounts of helium trapped in the asteroids that form the field. Extremely low temperatures within the nebula do not allow to use asteroid miners in the field, however, standard cargo tracking equipment installed on most ships allows to mine out this element in small quantities.
Wilkes-Barre Asteroid Field
A desolate medium-sized rock asteroid field. Traces of valuable metals have been found by initial surveys conducted by the Zoners, but no further research has been made due to increasing pirate activity in the Pennsylvania system.
