This Sector England! [ICON]

This kinda grew out of my Napoleonic thread in general chat. I used the System template from ICON to make up England as it would have appeared around the early 18th through 20th century in a sci fi setting. I used place names as best as I could guess from various books and would take any suggestions on improvements.

England consists of 31 systems of which 6 are inhabited (3 with Class L worlds). Excludes Wales, the shires north of Cheshire, Darby, Nottingham and Lincoln another words classic England.

The Wessex System
System Name: Wessex
Affiliation: The United Kingdom of Systems
System Type: Type G Single star
Inhabited Planets: Wessex Prime (Class L); Dorset (Class L)
Other Planets: 7
Other Stellar Objects: n/a
Artificial Objects: Plymouth Station, a medium sized commercial station & minor shipyard in orbit above Wessex Prime. Weymouth Station a commercial station also known for its recreation facilities is in orbit above Dorset
SIS: system is largely known for its agricultural resources and a small amount of industry.

The Sussex System
System Name: Sussex
Affiliation: The United Kingdom of Systems
System type: Type G Single Star
Inhabited Planets: Sussex Prime (Class M) and Kent (Class L)
Other Planets: 8
Other Stellar Objects: The resource poor Downs Asteroid Belt located between Sussex Prime and Kent.
Artificial Objects: Brighton Station, is considered a pleasure station aimed at amusement and recreation is in orbit above Sussex Prime. Portsmith Station in orbit above the small Planet of White (Class D) is the UKoS’s main naval port. Southampton Station meanwhile also in orbit above the Planet of White is the main commercial port. Dover Station in orbit above Kent is a moderately sized commercial port with a minor military station.
SIS: Without doubt the Sussex system is one of the most important economic, commercial and military centers of the UKoS as well as being the system located nearest the French Sector.

Essex System
System Name: Essex
Affiliation: United Kingdom of Systems
System Type: Type G single star
Inhabited Planets: Essex Prime (Class M); East Anglia (Class L)
Other Planets: 9
Other Stellar Objects: n/a
Artificial Objects: Yarmouth Station a relatively minor commercial and recreation station in orbit above East Anglia.
SIS: A mainly agricultural producing system the Essex system is known to have some of the most beautiful vistas in the UKoS.

London System
System Name: London
Affiliation: United Kingdom of Systems (Capitol)
System type: Single Type G
Inhabited Planets: London Prime (Class M); Oxford (Class L); Buckingham (Class L (Terraformed from H))
Other Planets: 5
Other Stellar Objects: n/a
Artificial Objects: Upper London Station is the main UKoS starport in orbit above London. Oxford Station houses the oldest university in the UKoS and is in orbit above Oxford
SIS: The UKoS capitol system

Birmingham System
System Name: Birmingham (formerly Mercia)
Affiliation: United Kingdom of Systems
System type: Single Type G
Inhabited Planets: Mercia Prime (Class L); Staffordshire (Class L); Nottingham (Class L)
Other Planets: 7
Other Stellar Objects: n/a
Artificial Objects: n/a
SIS: The Birmingham System is relatively void of any value save for the agricultural resources it has developed however some industry has begun to develop on Birmingham.

Cornwall System
System Name: Cornwall
Affiliation: United Kingdom of Systems
System Type: Single Type A Star
Inhabited Planets: Cornwall Prime (enclosed domes & subterranean living spaces) (Class D)
Other Planets: 3
Other Stellar Objects: the resource valuable Dartmoor and Exmoor asteroid belts
Artificial Objects: Falmouth Station in orbit above Cornwall was once the main starport for ships coming and going toward the New Systems.
SIS: From here ships first jumped into the great unknown of the Atlantic expanse to explore and found new systems

Of course in a trek setting all you have to do is add New in front of the place names and wam instant Terran colonies!

Standing on the corner checking my watch, "been 24 hours and not a bite, damn knew I should have put this in the narrators forum."

Uh... can I say I find this quite nice without seeming to only be answering your concerns ? ;)

Waiting for Napoleonic France now... :D

I'd offer my compliments, but I'm a bit short on breath. Bloody hard work, heaving all these crates of tea out the airlock, old bean. :D

Midland Sector
Midland sector consist of 7 system of which 3 are inhabited.

Northumbria System
System Name: Northumbria
Affiliation: United Kingdom of Systems
System type: Single Type G Star
Inhabited Planets: York (Class L), Lancashire (Class L (Terraformed class K))
Other Planets: 9
Other Stellar Objects: Pennines Asteroid Belt
Artificial Objects: Liverpool Station a large commercial and military station in orbit of Lancashire. Hull Station a small commercial station in orbit above York.
SIS: The Northumbria system is resource rich if somewhat underdeveloped save for the large shipyards of Liverpool Station

Northumberland System
System name: Northumberland
Affiliation: United Kingdom of Systems
System Type: Single Type G star
Inhabited planets: Northumberland (Class M)
Other planets: 5
Other Stellar Objects: n/a
Artificial Objects: Northumberland is one anchor of the ancient defense network of both massive defense starbases and smaller outposts created by the Roman Emperor Hadrian which stretches across space and ends in the Cumberland system.
SIS: Northumberland is a large well developed mining and industrial center.

Cumberland System
System Name: Cumberland
Affiliation: United Kingdom of Systems
System Type: Single Type G Star
Inhabited Planets: Cumberland (Class L)
Other Planets: 3
Other Stellar Objects: N/a
Artificial Objects: Cumberland is another anchor of the Hadrian Defense Network with several complexes passing through its system.
SIS: Cumberland has light resources which are minded but exported and remains a agricultural system

A Note on the stellarography of England.

England and Scotland as well as Ireland is a large clearing in the vast Nebula which surrounds the "Western" borders of the Europa Quadrant. The narrowest point in the nubula is loacted at Dover where it is a mere 22 light years thick (though this can be some of the most hazardous area known in the Nebula. The nebula itself is "dividided for purposes of mapping into several areas such as the Irish Nebula, the North Nebula and so on.... But it is in fact one large nebula. The Nebula itself ends roughly One hundred light years past Falmouth heading "West" where it opens into the great open void known as the Atlantic Expanse.

Eric, have you read any of Bill Baldwin's Helmsman series? They're written as a distant future galactic version of WW2, and have similar "stellography" to what you're describing.
