[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] The reason I make RNZ so compact and almost completely enclosed is that I want to shove a couple of real-life and noncanon references in. Canon alone would not completely justify such a small RSE. But I want to have the RNZ roughly oval-shaped and I want the homeworlds at Triangulum (Australe) to keep with Diane Duane's books, and I want Gamma Hydra (a real star with a fixed location) in Federation space but near an ovoid Neutral Zone of some sort (ST2; not necessarily the RNZ, since there were Klingons in it... But then there was this alliance thing) - so voila! It's not something I expect many people to be satisfied with, though. Nyah, nyah to you. [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif[/IMG] And I don't think warfleets or emissaries travel around empires. They go *through* them. The borders of empires aren't sealed, at least if you operate a cloaked ship (or a fast ship). All of the empires on this compact map are so close to each other that they can share afternoon tea, regardless of whether there is a stretch of another empire between them or not. This is a conscious choice to avoid making the map 3D. If I insisted on every given pair of empires sharing a physical border if there is a reference to a treaty or a war between them, then I'd have to go fully 3D and moreover give the empires weird tentacles to give sufficient "contact surfaces".
