A lot of these system pages are outdated, Space's nav map may be better.

Frankfurt System

The Frankfurt System (Rheinland space) is located in the end of the Rheinland territory, between New Berlin, Munich, and Sigma-13. During the 80 Year War is when most of the expansion of the system took place as the system was the to be used as the staging ground for attacks into Sigma 13, however by the wars end most of the system was left ruined and mostly abandoned with GMG raiding parties that ceased several years before the Nomad War doing nothing to improve the situation. 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.

Areas of Interest

Asteroid Fields

Taunusfeld

A field of bare rock asteroids, this was once a staging area for military operations during the 80-Years War. The field was later abandoned after Rheinland's bitter defeat at the hands of the Gas Mining Guild (GMG). Ironically, probes have begun to detect a substantial Bundschuh presence in the field, though the exact nature of their activities is currently unknown.

Weisser Ring

A small ring of ice asteroids, believed to be the remnants of a planet that never fully coalesced.

Nebulae

Westerwald

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. Proceed at your own risk.
