Elysian Fields
The Elysian Fields is a group of 30 star systems located on the trailward edge of the Local Supercluster. The cluster includes 16 colonized systems and at least 17 countries. With the notable exception of the Holy See, these states are all classified as non-legacy nations - emerging entirely in the Post-Earth era.
Astrography
The Elysian Fields are situated coreward of the Sunset Gates, trailward of the Argentine Arm, rimward of the Mare Nostrum, and spinward of the Acadian Expanse.
Translight Strings
There are a total of 37 charted translight strings connecting the 30 star systems of the Elysian Fields. There are four nexus systems in the Elysian Fields, with at least four strings converging on each: Mongibello, Tridente, Quinquefolius, Croix, and Avanti.
