The '''New York''' system is the capital of [[Liberty]] space and one of the most traversed systems in all of the [[Sirius Sector]]. The system contains two settled planets (of which one has a [[Maine|uninhabited moon]]) and eleven bases. It also hosts five major corporations and four criminal organizations. There are [[Jump Gate|jump gates]] and [[Jump Hole|holes]] to five different systems, and the system orbits a single medium-sized white star. It is located near the center of Sirius and acts as a semi "crossroads" between the remaining lawful houses.

All players start with a Civilian ID, which is a basic ID sold on every station, planet and base. Specialised, i.e. Faction IDs or general IDs (like Trader ID), are sold in some or at least in one of the bases belonging to the faction. A Faction ID is Discovery's primary means determining to which faction a player belongs. A Terrorist ID can only be granted by admins.

===The Manhattan Protest March===

Often cited by critics of the Libertonian [[Liberty Police Incorporated|police]] and Navy, the Manhattan Protest March was a demonstration against Libertonian police brutality and fascism under the lead of ''Simon Reynolds''. A convoy of civilians in trading vessels gathered in the nearby [[Connecticut|Connecticut System]], their shields and weapons deactivated and stored on [[New Haven Station|New Haven]] as a sign of their peaceful intentions, and began heading towards Manhattan, where they intended to block access to [[Planet Manhattan|Manhattan's]] [[Docking Ring|docking rings]]. Shortly after their arrival in the ecumenopolis's orbit however, they were halted by Liberty Navy officers, who accused Reynolds of being a traitor and everyone following him a criminal. When the Navy consecutively opened fire upon the protesters, at least 6 civilian vessels were confirmed to have been shot down; Simon Reynolds is believed to be still alive, and ''Samantha Fisher'', his former first officer, is now wanted by the Libertonian government (which went as far as setting a bounty on her head) as they think she may possess knowledge regarding his current location.

[[Tag]] (i.e. reputation) that is shown in targeting brackets can show conflicting faction name with the ID. All players are responsible to get an ID matching their role play or desired faction and then adjust their reputation, and thus tag, to correspond the ID they have mounted.

ID also serves as a tractor beam, so without it player cannot tractor in loot. Special care needs to be taken when purchasing new ships that you don't lose the ID. The correct way is to unmount the ID, buy the ship, mount the ID. IDs are closely related to many of the [[Discovery RP Rules|server rules]], so understanding the concept is crucial.

There are jump gates and holes to five different systems, and the system orbits a single medium-sized white star. It is located near the center of Sirius and acts as a semi "crossroads" between the remaining lawful houses.
