About Oceania

"Oceania, a jewel of the galactic seas."

The Oceania is an Outer Expanse colony cluster founded by Indonesian mining interests that quickly rose to prominence as an important shipbuilding cluster and trade hub on the periphery of PACT space. Due to a lack of viable planets, nearly the entire 72 million people permanently in-system reside in space habitats located at Lagrange Points around the gas giant Pacifica.

History

Discovery Era [2078-2100]

Oceania was a system first charted and explored by Posthuman probes circa 2077. Originally believed to be the reformed remains of a star that went supernova several billions of years ago, indicators of Precursor intervention (mostly in miniscule pocket of functional Delta Dust locked into sub-atmospheric orbits) indicated the possibility that the system was manipulated to it current state but apparently abandoned before any viable or terraformable planets were created.

Despite a lack of livable space, several corporate interests, most notably Pacific Rim mining consortiums that had taken note of the abundant heavy metal and Helium 3 supplies the system held in its asteroid belts and numerous gas giants. The Indonesia and Australia were primary investors in the venture, while Singapore and New Zealand, eager to establish footholds off-world, bought in as secondary partners.

Within a decade years of its discovery, Oceania was quickly established as a logistical waypoint between the more distant colonies of the Outer Rim with a little under a hundred thousand colonists calling the system's first space habitat Pacifica-One home. For the next few decades, the population grew very slowly as the system remained mostly undeveloped by corporate interests.

Colonization Era [2101-2149]

It was only after the arrival of fleeing Transgenes, driven from Earth and denied entry into other Pac-Arm worlds, that Oceania's population swelled in size. A traditionally bioconservative Australia was reticent to allow potentially tainted Transgenes, any movement to bar them entry was vetoed by Indonesia and Singapore, which had long since embraced the advances of Chinese transhumanism. Everyone was welcome to Oceania.

Although the local shipbuilding industry was indeed more than capable of fulfilling quotas on building new habitats for normal immigration rates, migrants simply overwhelmed the industrial capacity normally available. Subsequently, many colonists made do by loaning ships from the government and using them as residences, or building their habs directly into hollowed-out asteroids.

By the 2120's, Oceania had become a vibrant and multicultural center of commerce and industry with a growing biotech field, in part due to deliberately unrestrictive laws in regards to transgenics and genetic engineering. With the majority of the population eventually adopting a template better suited to zero-g and spin-gravity life or giving one to their children, Oceania became an open market for firms suppressed by Straus-Kasserism on Earth. By the end of the decade, a little under half the population were using the N-Diver transgenic template, a modified Alpha-type adapted to zero-gravity environments.

Corporate interests grew notably during this period, and the colony made good on promises made by its founders to support the line as PACT pushed to Eridanus to eradicate feral drones that had been posing a threat to Pacific-Arm interests.
