Epsilon Eridani

a star system. It is part of the Solarian League, and a war which took place in the system had a major impact on interstellar law and the constitution of the Solarian League. Because of the Epsilon Eridani Massacre, the Eridani Edict was enacted as part of the constitution.

Erewhon

a former member of the Manticore Alliance. It is a polity consisting of one inhabited planet, the star system in which it resides and the Erewhon Wormhole Junction. Located near Solarian League space, Erewhon was founded by a group of criminal organizations and mafia families which became the social elite of the new world. While formally a republic, Erewhon is controlled by a triumvirate or quadrumvirate of family heads which takes all the decisions. The formal head of state of the Republic of Erewhon is the President, who is usually the head of one of the families currently at the top of the Erewhonese power structure. The Republic's capital is the city of Maytag. Erewhonese placenames tend to reference 20th century laundry products (Maytag, Sears, Suds Emporium, etc.) and are reflective of the intent of the planet's founding criminal families to use it as a money laundering enterprise. Erewhon fought alongside Manticore and Grayson against the People's Republic during the First Haven-Manticore War. However, the actions of the Baron High Ridge administration after the war alienated Erewhon's ruling families, leading to Erewhon's breakaway from the Manticoran Alliance and its siding with the restored Republic of Haven shortly before the resumption of hostilities. Erewhon's defection to the Havenites was nothing short of a disaster for the Star Kingdom, since the Erewhon Navy was the third largest of the Alliance, and had received substantial technology transfers from Manticore.
