Galactic Map: Auroran

Auroran space is massive, with 5 different houses. Each one has it's own space, with the generic "Auroran Empire" controlling the systems inbetween some of the families and ones that are too important to be controled by a single House (like listening posts). You can check out the map here.

Dangers: Mission Threads That Start Here:
Houseless ships can be a pain, as can Marauders, but the biggest danger is of getting caught in the crossfire of Fed/Auroran and various houses' battles.
Vell-os, Polaris, Auroran
Noteworthy Planets/Systems:
Aurora in the Aurora system. It's the Auroran capital. It has a pretty good selection of items, and it surrounded by other good systems. It also has a hypergate that gives you direct access to Fed space, should you ever need to jump between the two.
