The names of the planet, continents and capital city on Bristol are a hodge-podge of names drawn from the southwestern regions of the United Kingdom. Bristol is a major city located in England, close to the border with Wales, and for much of British history was the second-largest city in the British Isles (after London, the capital). The continent named Cornwall is named for the most south-western county of the British mainland; the name of the second continent, Cymru, is the name for Wales in Welsh. Bristol's capital city, Cardiff, is the capital city of modern Wales, although the Welsh name for Cardiff is written as Caedrygg.

Recharge station(s)Nadir[1]

The Bristol system was home to at least one habitable world, Bristol II, and as at 3145 was located in the Markesan Operational Area of the Crucis March within the Federated Suns.[2][3]

System Description

The Bristol system is located near the Manteno and Wroxeter systems[2][3] and consists of a class K5V primary orbited by at least two planets. During the late thirty-first century a recharge station was in place at the system nadir jump point.[1]

System History

The Bristol system was colonised during or shortly after the First Exodus from Terra and was located close to the border of the Federated Suns when the Crucis Pact was signed in the early twenty-fourth century.[4]

Bristol II

Planetary History

Bristol was once a heavily industrialized world, but the ravages of the Succession Wars have reduced its importance to the single weapons manufacturer located on the planet, Jolassa-Kumbold Armored Weapons, whose plant is located outside the capital city, Cardiff.[1]

Political Affiliation

Military Deployment

2764

Geography

Bristol has two major continents named Cornwall and Cymru.[1]

Planetary Locations

  • Cardiff: The planetary capital city of Bristol, located on Cymru.[1]

Industrial Centers

  • Jolassa-Kumbold Armored Weapons[1]

Notes

The names of the planet, continents and capital city on Bristol are a hodge-podge of names drawn from the southwestern regions of the United Kingdom. Bristol is a major city located in England, close to the border with Wales, and for much of British history was the second-largest city in the British Isles (after London, the capital). The continent named Cornwall is named for the most south-western county of the British mainland; the name of the second continent, Cymru, is the name for Wales in Welsh. Bristol's capital city, Cardiff, is the capital city of modern Wales, although the Welsh name for Cardiff is written as Caedrygg.
