History-

Maracas is a prominent, wealthy Orion World. Located in the southeast of Orion Space, 68 ly from the Core Worlds, and it is where Orinco Shipyards, the Orion Syndicate, and numerous Artistic and Engineering developers operate. It's system is mostly unremarkable, although it has some mineral-rich planets and moons that are mined, mostly by isolated Orion and Rigellian interests.

Trade Profile: EDCECDF/E(D)

History-

Speld is an uninteresting, somewhat poor world with some occasional trading and survey teams from many Star Nations on the various worlds, and some poorer Orion families live there, but otherwise, it is simply a mediocre uninteresting system that helped cement in the minds of the Klingons that the Orions were khesterex. It is located 72 ly from the core worlds near Klingon Space.

History-

This was long assumed to be the ancient Homeworld of the Orions, and has even had strong archeological and biological evidence of an Orion Presence, but the Orions have been shadowy on the matter. The world has been a UFP member world since 2162, but has hovered in a dark grey area between the Federation and the Orion Pirates.

History-

In the southeast region of the Triangle, the Naiad System has been greedily owned by the Hamilcar Cartel, the main planet in the system, the fifth, is an Ocean World with only a miniscule amount of land, some occasional harvested minerals, and much harvested salt, also used for tourism and scientific observations of ocean worlds.
