It just surprises me that no one lives at Uranus.
Oh, there's a nation or four out there. How that poor planet got overlooked, I dunno. Nobody loves Uranus and its residents I guess. :(

The Moon does also have The Resurgent Dream & Menelmacar on it (And a few others I can't recall).

+ The entire region of 'Moon', but that is negligible, since no-one there ever RPs. Well, Lunar Rheinland could, potentially, but... Yeah.

Mars has a map (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/mapofmars.html), but it is kinda outdated.

Jupiter does also have me on Callisto, Ganymede and Europa.

Sketch on Europa

Kaenei on Europa.

Konania on Ganymede and Thebe

Ma-Tek in (Yes, in) Jupiter

Cetaganda on Callisto (I think, I wont bet on it)

The Silver Turtle on Leda and some other moon... Lysomething I think.

Melkor, Tsaraine, Burning Mountain, Menelmacar on Io

Uranus is claimed by Taurenor, and Autonomous City-States has some moon there, I think. Reploid Productions might have something there, too, but I wont bet on that, either.

Neptune does have me inside Neptune, as well.

Pluto/ Charon have New York and Jersey bases on them.

So... Yeah, that's what I can think of, right now.

Technically, Io is ... weird.

Part of it is owned, more or less, by the Imperium of Melkor Unchained (they were leased from the Burninatonians, but when that government fell the lease agreement sort of collapsed, and through various OOC things resulting in the War That Wasn't, they don't have to pay rent on it now). That's the former lands of Billcifer, a vassal of Lord Lucius Lancaster of Burninatonia, if I recall correctly.

Menelmacar has floating city things, obtained in a similar manner, I think.

Burning Mountain is similar, technically a former vassal state of Burninatonia, but they've always exercised a high degree of independence. The Burning Mountaineers are darn cool.

The rest of it is the core of Burninatonia itself. Before it collapsed, Burninatonia was a member of the Non-Democratic Alliance, and so when Lord Landcaster was killed and the place dissolved into a short-lived civil war, it became a protectorate of the Non-Democratic Alliance. That protectorate is administered by the Greater Ascendancy of Tsaraine, and listed as a Tsarainese Tekhat (there's a bar on my flag for it), but it's not, technically, owned by Tsaraine.

Mars is ... probably best avoided, any new arrival on Mars or in Martian space seems to make them go to war. The name of the planet is very apt.

Jupiter also has Tsarainese asteroid bases (the Kel Meralkharant distributed base) in the Io/Jupiter Lagrange points; L2, L3, L4 and L5. The Imperium has shipyards nearby. Menelmacar has shipyards in Jupiter's atmosphere (why I don't know, given that you'd have to deal with massive winds and gravity and such, but that's elves for you).

Not Io again. I unwittingly started a whole thread on that rock a few weeks ago. You might want to read it, as people began discussing the overall Sol situation and there may be a few things you missed.

Regarding Venus, someone told me it was terraformed. Wonder if any has Mercury.

Mercury is occupied by The Caloris Basin and the Order of the Seraphim; I think Austar Union may have something there but I haven't been following that buisness very closely. Caloris is reasonably friendly, the Seraphim generally are not, but neither is likely to give you land, I think.

And yes, Menelmacar was instrumental in the terraforming of Mercury, and for that reason claims ownership of it in a general sense; or at least I'm pretty sure people have to pay Menelmacar for land. You being a nation of anti-elven racists, it's unlikely that that would work.

Indeed. Which is why I have gone and plopped a 3km asteroid into a geocentric orbit (opposite of a pre-existing ESUS structure, though not so large so unlikely to balance it out totally) which should serve my purposes splendily. Assuming no one blows it out of the sky, which would be unfortunate since I kinda need this RP as a stepping stone to the reduction of my Vendetta.

[OOC: I have a Colony in Mars orbit (Cyrnal Yste), at the terminus for the Mars-Earth Highway (from the other end, it's the Earth-Mars Highway) with a small exclusion zone. Permission to pass through is granted to anyone and everyone who asks, however. Discharge or powering of weapons systems is, of course, strictly prohibited (in any region of space administrated - for we no longer actively actually claim anything we don't utilize - this applies).

We also have an area of Earth space considered 'owned' by the Iluvauromeni (that would be me, sorry, just used to the plural when talking about my nation on here, heh), which is a very specific slither of orbit directly above the nation, where various manned and unmanned installations exist. These include the shunts - which hurl you out of Earth orbit cheaply (and for free, although it's considered polite to charge the next shunt you happen across which needs it via microwave power beam) or towards the Earth-Mars Highway (which is also ours, civilian owned and operated, small toll charges apply for use).

We also hold a small area of space in the asteroid belt beyond Mars - this is an area with a fairly large military exclusion zone (46,000km), although civilian ships are allowed into the area provided they verify permission and acknowledge all flight control orders (obviously, but worth pointing out). This area is referred to as Vilya Elenosto, and contains the Sol Orbital Colony of Vilya Elenosto (in astronomical synch with Mars' orbit, but moving at a higher velocity as it is further distant from the Sun), the exit point for the series of electromagnetic slingshots that are the incomplete Mars-Vilya Elenosto Highway, as well as the Commonality Space Force-operated Freedom Dockyards.

Last, but by no means least, although there is no spatial exclusion zone, there is the Colony of the Dethri Jovian Sunset, situated inside the Jovian atmosphere.

All of the Colonies conduct rigorous decontamination procedures. All of the Colonies provide trading services, as well as shipping services, etc, currently without tariffs or tax (guaranteed for one more year!).

Oh, and one other thing: the space around any Iluvauromeni Battlegroup, Squadron, Patrol, or solitary warship is considered (mostly unofficially, although Commonality Space Force regs allow the commander of a vessel to fire upon any vessel breaching this etiquette, inside a set of certain conditions) to be an exclusion zone for foreign military/civilian vessels. Civilian vessels need only keep a distance of 25,000 metres. Non-allied military vessels are expected to remain 60,000 kilometres away at all times. Permission is sometimes given, however, and if the ship itself advances inside that sphere, permission to close distance is implicit. I almost (read: I did) forgot to mention, as it seemed obvious to me at the time: this little matter does not apply in orbit of any planetary body or moon. Naturally, this is referring to open stellar space.]

Well I have holdings on Mars (as indicated on the Mars map) and I got a lunar base somewhere around the southern pole of the moon.

No Tsaraine, I still havent managed to gain holdings on Mercury. Actually, the most I have managed to get was an embassy in Brahms from the Caloris Basin. About Mercury, Sirens of Titan, its a bit of a situation whereby the Order of the Seraphim doesnt actually control *its* land areas. Basically, most of the planet is controlled by a set of rogue military forces previously commanded by the Order of the Seraphim (since then have seperated to form their own entity), and anything they dont control is basically what is known as The Caloris Basin. The Caloris Basin is a kind of outpost for The Most Glorious Hack where its controlled by few individuals and its population could probably be named at best three or four. The Rogue Seraphim Military however, is pretty much a multinational military gone rogue, hence the name. So theres no two guesses on their strength. Of course, one can only speculate where they get their resources from since their seperation. Currently there is no source... ;)

And yes, Menelmacar was instrumental in the terraforming of Mercury Surely you mean Venus. Mercury hasn't been terraformed.

anything they dont control is basically what is known as The Caloris Basin.Just to clarify a little. Since Mercury doesn't have gazillions of nations on it, SoE and I are using the real map of Mercury (such as it is: Messenger only mapped about 40%). My major holdings are in the Caloris Basin (hence my name) and the Brahms Crater (which is a bit north of the Basin). I don't believe SoE has spelled out the exact locations of their holdings.

For what it's worth, annexing Brahms made for a period of rather tense relations between myself and SoE, but we got over that. Completely surrounding my holdings is a "no-man's land" (panmunjeen, I believe) that is owned by nobody. There is a meeting hall in the middle of this buffer (I believe the buffer is 2-5 km wide).

The Caloris Basin is a kind of outpost for The Most Glorious Hack where its controlled by few individuals and its population could probably be named at best three or four.Mostly, yes. tCB is a colony of the Hack (which is kinda weird: a protectorate having a colony), but that should be changing before too long (read: when I get around to it). tCB still receives supplies and technological assistance from the Hack, and freely gives the results of all research, but it doesn't operate quite like a "normal" colony.

As for the population... I do use my whole population. Sort of. Currently, there are 5 sentients from tCB; Elijah and Joshua in the Basin itself; Ezekiel in the Brahms Crater; Ruth in the Nod Orbital Star Port; and Habakkuk who is currently in the Dominion of Dread Lady Nathicana. The other couple billion that make up my population represent various drones and robots that aren't sentient. The number of sentients will potentially increase in the future as Elijah can create more liquid metal for avatars.

Wow. I'm sure that's more information on Mercury than anyone cares about.

As for other planets, United Indiastan (or was it 01?) had claims of much of Uranus-space, but I don't think either is extant anymore. Also, there's three or for people with outposts on Sedna, but I can't imagine anyone is chomping at the bit for that rock.

And the least inhabitable place, the Sun, actually has two nations there: Absolute Light, which is a very strange research station floating in the upper corona (I think); and the Solar Giants, who are huge blobs of sentient plasma.

Surely you mean Venus. Mercury hasn't been terraformed.

Oops! Yes, I do mean Venus. Heaven knows how one would go about terraforming Mercury.

It just surprises me that no one lives at Uranus.

Ah! That reminds me, I should move finishing that RP I had to claim Oberon higher up on my 'to do' list.

Gaian Ascendancy has mentioned having a small outpost on Luna (what they call Earth's moon) a few times in my II RPs.

We don't own any of the planets here, we just have a few starbase observation posts to help keep an eye on the Motherworld.

We have the following assets in the Sol System:

1 - Observation Outpost on Luna, darkside of the moon, northern pole.
1 - System Observation Starbase at the Zenith point in the Sol System.
1 - Resource Control Starbase in orbit over the North Pole of Saturn
16 - Solar Mirror Arrays in medium orbit near Sol itself.

We send exploration fleets and other vessels, both to assist the Woodian expansion into the stars, and also to keep an eye on the Motherworld itself. The Ascendancy Sphere 'did' come from Terra in the first place.

But we don't own actual areas of any land within the Sol System. We already actually own a 'Sol' version in the Talos Galaxy, where the Inner Sphere exists. =^^=

Unless I am mistaken, which I could very well be, Jordaxia has claims on parts of Pluto and Charon as well, I will have to check my resources. Checked em and aye, Jordaxia has Pluto and Charon claimed (parts). You would have to talk to Jord yourself to verify for sure though.

That I know of, the Pluto/Charon system has been, at various times, claimed by 01, The Snel, New York and Jersey, Northwestern Liang, Jordaxia, and (I think) Angelus.

Of those, 01, The Snel, and Angelus don't roleplay any more.

I believe I read something on the Mars boards about New York and Jersey not acknowledging any other claims to the Pluto/Charon planetary system - this came up in relation to Jordaxia's own claims. Go figure, one's from II, one's from NS - how likely is it that they'd learn of each other's claims until just recently? Not very.

I'm not sure how NW Liang fits into all that, though.

Thank you all for the input, I will compile it later today or tomorrow.

VAMC (Ventuusi Acquisitional Mining Corporation) has holdings primarily on Uranus (Uranic indiginous population recruited in back-story) and the Inner Moons, mostly because noone seemed to have claimed them. If this has changed (I spent a lot of time disabled, and never really made many posts in the first place) I'll happily alter VAMC appropriately.

1 - Resource Control Starbase in orbit over the North Pole of SaturnThis probably isn't widely acknowledged on the NS forum, as Yut pretty much has all of Saturn and Saturn-space. And has since early 2003.

Of those, 01, The Snel, and Angelus don't roleplay any more.Hell, I don't think any of them even exist anymore. Snel and 01 are gone, and Angelus was just res'd a few days ago. Which kinda throws a wrench in the works for those of us who have been RP'ing that they were gone forever...

Megacity Two is on luna.

Obviously people are free to play as they wish, but as Caloris points out, ToY controls the Saturn system. I'm not really against other people saying they have claims, it just makes interacting with said people rather...difficult.
One could attempt to negotiate for some gas harvesting, which is what I think Gaian is up to, though you would have to go through some serious "loops"...and probably sign some sorta non-competition agreement with Suunto.

*Smaller note for Sirens. To be clear, ToY is headquartered on Titan, which is guarded quite...alot. Rhea is property of Zero-One (not to be confused with 01) and Iapetus is a mil-base. Most of the rest are mined, and some of the smaller ones aren't even there anymore.*

I'll find a way in, don't you worry. Torontonias, Sith and several others will be very kind to host the plague of the Sirens to their homebase, and one day I'll infiltrate Yut.

New Shiron would like to clear with the various powers in the Jovian system permission to refuel from the upper reaches of Jupiter. I have no interest in bases, just want my fuel shuttles to be able to dive into the atmosphere periodically.

You're correct; I am based on Thebe in conjunction with the other members of the Jovian league. Only two nations are present on the Jovian moon of Europa; Sketch and myself. No other nations are permitted landings there, as the Securitas treaty states.

Oh, and good luck on infiltrating the Triumvirate - You'll be needing it.

New Shiron has no Elves, and never has. It is a member of the Federated Klatchian States, of which a couple of member states are unfriendly to Elves but New Shiron does not maintain that stance (New Shiron doesn't like Orcs)

Easily.

'Course, such would be more complicated than what was mentioned above, but, well, one can theorise.

Actually the outpost near Saturn is only an observation post within the Sol System (NS agreed version) along with the others. Already got several thousand gas giants to mine from in the first place, and anything in the Sol System is considered 'holy ground' for the Gaians, since they originally lived on Earth before traversing through a special Stargate that no longer exists on Earth, to the White Diamond System, hence beginning their long journey to where they are now.

If anything, the Stations within Sol Sector are simply civilization nodes, and not military bases. The Gaians actually would like a small tract of land on Terra itself, called (laugh if ye must) Coral Springs on the Florida peninsula and Big Timber in the Montana sector, since the founder (rp wise) came from those two places.

To Gaians nowadays, that's like Mecca or The Vatican in religious circles, or The UN or Geneva in political circles. The stations are therefore also tourist stations for Gaians to come to, though it's limited to human Gaians, or non-human Gaians with type-twelve holo-imager disguises. The System is a tourist mecca to Gaians as a result.

Should do an rp to expand on that concept. =^^=

Simply getting Vrak to act as your, ah, warranter, would be sufficient, then... Easily.

'Course, such would be more complicated than what was mentioned above, but, well, one can theorise.

the Queen of New Shiron is married to the ruler of the Lords of War and is related by marriage to Alcona and Hubris. In addition, New Shiron has full membership in the FKC and Vrak is considered an ally. It can be assumed that Vrak would be willing to provide such a endorsement.

This is kinda what I meant, yes... But, see above, so long as it is merely mining/ refueling, with no fixed installations in place, clearance can be assumed to begin with.

And this is slowly hijacking the thread. I shall cut here

All of SaturnSpace is claimed by the Triumvirate of Yut. Period, end of discussion.

Angelus had shit on Europa, but.... Yeah, anyway.

One of the Menelmacari shipyards (maybe the largest?) in Jupiter is operated by Angelus, who is also a part-owner.

The Triumvirate owns/holds sway over considerable amount of space in the Sol system, but is principly grouped around Saturn (Titan, The Ring, & The WorldDisc)

Angelus has several deep-atmosphere mining operations in Jupiter, as well as quite a few in the Oort Cloud, the Asteroid Belt, and throughout the Proxima Centauri system.

I "technically" own stuff on Charon/Pluto, via my interactions with the Snel. However, I've not played anything in there for a while.

Don't mess with my shit, I'll be very unhappy. Angelus' hold on sanity is pretty tenuous as it is. An Unhappy Angelus is a BAD thing.

My Solar holdings are limited to the asteroid Pezun at Earth-Luna's L4, Solomon at L5, my colonies and the asteroid A Baoa Qu at L2, the Lunar city of Granada in the Tsiolkovsky Crater, the asteroid Mathilde and it's colonies in high Martian orbit, and the asteroid Axis and it's surrounding colonies in the asteroid belt.

Anyway, stuff that I know about:
The Guilds own a freakin' buttload of main belt asteroids, Earth-crossing asteroids, Jovian Trojan asteroids, and several ships in orbit of Mars, Earth, Venus, and Sol in general Mercury space. As far as planetary claims, go, Lebedinskiy and Dante craters, Korolev and Lacus Luxuriae regions, and Mare Moscoviens on the Moon and half-ownership of a space elevator on Mars. They also occupy the Jovian moons of Sinope, Ananke, Adrastea, and Amalthea, as well as a bunch of other tiny unnamed rocks. Not sure at the moment whether or not the Guilds have land on Mercury. That needs to be clarified with the Seraphim.
Not the Guild government, but a large corporation, shares the artificial planet Centaur with the Eniqciri.

The Snel aren't actually gone, they've just not been very active for a while. They occupy much subsurface volume on Pluto and former 01 intstallations on Charon. Also, stuff on Mars, the south pole of Ganymede, a mobile Island II colony, and a truly enormous Stanford-torus type habitat known as the Worldring. Oh, and floating cities in the atmosphere's of Uranus and Neptune.

Eniqcir has got mining operations on Callisto, and a lot of land on Mars, and used to own Rhadamanthus, Ixion, and a few other centaur objects, but those were dismantled.

There was definitely mention of the Ganymede base during the Pluto/Charon War, however. And it figured in the construction of a wormhole gate with Sakkra. And it was the site for meeting with Scolopendra, Wazzu, and... I forget who else concerning false-vacuum technology.

As for myself, the Drakonian Imperium just claimed a very small area (which I assume to be adjoining the Britmattian claim) for the purpose of further landings and possible future development. Although, I doubt anyone will yet recognize that claim since the only RPing that I did it in was a Regional Message and the creation of a puppet. Even if you did, you would probably dislike the way I went about it (using an unmanned probe to make the claim). I do however to in the near future start a thread with which that claim will be the focus. Other than that I have no other claims that are not on Earth itself.

There are also a couple of moon regions, but it seems that no one recognizes them here because no one in them really RPs. There are likely regions for most of the planets (even one I know for the sun itself), likely also the asteroid and kuiper belts (which I'd be interested in hearing how who claims stuff out there).
