The Sunset Gates is a cluster of 38 star systems located in the Sea of Clouds. The cluster includes 27 colonized systems belonging solely to the United States of America. As a Legacy Nation, it shares strong direct historical, cultural, and linguistic ties to a nation that once existed on Earth.
Astrography
The Sunset Gates are situated trailward of the Hydrus Expanse, rimward of the Rubicon and is in the coreward-by-spinward edge of the Sea of Clouds. It consists of four constituent subclusters: the Gateway Subcluster, New American Colonies, Symphony Subcluster and the McCrae Test and Training Range.
Translight Strings
There are a total of 31 charted translight strings connecting the 29 star systems of the Amazonia Cluster. The Ilha De Vera Cruz system is the cluster's nexus, with five strings converging there.

Etymology
An allusion to the poem "The New Colossus" by Emma Lazarus.
Sunset: From Middle English son-sett, Sonne set, equivalent to sun + set.
Gates: From Middle English gate, gat, ȝate, ȝeat, from Old English ġeat (“gate”), from Proto-West Germanic *gat, from Proto-Germanic *gatą (“hole, opening”).
