[QUOTE="GreenKarl, post: 7481374, member: 6801242"] Perfectly... the Reach was a large sector of space that the Union identified as rich with a lot of good worlds for colonization and development. The sponsored lots of early colonization and corporation to expand into the area, but the war broke out with another stellar empire and the Union pull most of their personal and money out of the region. They set up the UFA as sort of a semi-legal caretaker to at least enforce what Union laws they could. Too cut back on costs the UFA relies on Regulators. They help train and sponsor the Regulators but otherwise allow them a lot of free reign, but also they are responsible for a lot of their personal upkeep (no medical or dental or retirement plans for you!!) Corporation and the colonies have a lot of autonomy but have to be self dependent as the UFA can offer little assistance except with the Regulators. So really only basic law enforcement and mercenary like assistances, nothing like food or medical or industrial imports, etc. except in emergencies. They can trade with others and the Union still makes some demands but otherwise they are left on their own. The technology is much lower then back in the Core Worlds and the populations are shattered. The largest colonies or corporate holdings are a few hundred thousands people. The largest and oldest is Paradise Prime, one of the first colonized worlds some 20 years ago, which boost a world wide population of just over one million people mostly settled on the northern continent. The Reach is fairly large spread over 30 or 40 some parsecs with numerous worlds that are near ideal for Human life and hundreds more that are within tolerance or also being terraformed. Those with heavy terraforming on are mostly corporate sponsored and have other high values to warrant the expense such as mining, and were originally set up by the Union. They sold the machinery and needed equipment off cheap as it was too expensive to recover and they needed quick cash for the war effort. [/QUOTE]
