The Chimera System is undoubtedly humanity's most fruitful find as it expands out into the universe. It contins two habitable planets and two further habitable moons. It was also the site of the first and largest armed engagement between spacebound forces, the Battle of New Ukraine.

Neuostland

The planet that was taken by the German FTL ship Seevogel after it was denied access to New Ukraine. Named for the Eastern Province of terrestrialGrossdeutschland (comprising Rumania and Czech Republic), Neuostland is, like its namesake, an agricultural powerhouse. It is a planet on which the Reich dumps people deemed to be too racially impure to be part of terrestrial Grossdeutschland. The inhabitants of the planet are deliberatly ill-educated and kept that way in order to increase their servility. They use only the most primitive farming methodologies. Because this Bauernwelt is ruled from a moon, the serfs of Neuostland know very little of their masters or their predicament.

Arminia

The administrative capital of Neuostland. The German governor and his staff live on Arminia, named for the German general who defeated Varus' Roman legions in the Battle of Teutoburg Forest, in antiquity. The German governors rule Neuostland from a distance, watching the population through a web of satellites, and ensuring they are incapable of rising against their rulers with occasional surgical strikes against local hotspots.

Bellerophon

Bellerophon is an uninhabitable gas giant a little larger than Jupiter. It has two habitable Moons.
