[3132] Epsilon Eridani is a pleasant world, if a bit damp. Frequent, but usually mild, rainstorms and fertile soils
have transformed the southern continent of Gousha into a mix of swamp lands and rain forest, yet much of the
planet's industry, including Kressly Technologies (formerly Kressly Warworks), is based there. The northern
continent of Parassus, by contrast, is drier and rockier, though hardly spared the effects of the planet's chronic
showers. The major trading and port city of Dori sits by the large Lake Arous on Parassus, and is the center of
the planet's commercial industry. Just 370 kilometers northwest of Dori is the planetary capital, Madison, rebuilt
after the Amaris occupation, when the city "including a Star League mint that printed Capellan currencies" was
virtually leveled by an orbital bombardment. Today, the largest of Epsilon Eridani's corporations is Kressly
Technologies, whose facilities on the planet include an IndustrialMech manufacturing facility and an aerospace
plant in the Goushan Highlands. The Kressly aerospace plant is actually a recent addition, built from the remains
of a forgotten surface testing facility that once belonged to the long-destroyed Harvard Company. Harvard,
which produced aerospace fighters in the days of the Star League, survived the League's destruction only to fall
in the crossfire between Houses Liao and Davion during the First Succession War.
[3132] Epsilon Eridani was originally part of the worlds controlled by the Word of Blake. After the Jihad and
the WOB was defeated Epsilon Dridani came under the control of The Republic. Epsilon Eridani became part of
Prefecture X under the control of The Republic. After the fall of the HPG Network Fortress Republic was
created and many of the worlds under its control were set free.
[3135] Epsilon Eridani remained part of The Republic and is now under its protection, inside the Fortress
Republic.
