When people refer to 'Colonia' it may have several meanings depending on how broadly the term is being used. Inaugural Colonia Viper Race (CCN Initiative).The Outlander Challenge (CCN Initiative).
The name Colonia eventually became part of the everyday lexicon within the exploration community and subsequently was officially added to the in game map via Universal Cartographics (Frontier Developments) several weeks later, in recognition of the CCN ( Colonia Citizens Network) community initiatives to help promote and colonize the region. It was added to the Galactic Mapping Project on July 1st 3302 as a POI given the (then) placeholder name of "Colonia" by CMDR's Erimus Kamzel and Diostar50. Its original designation was EOL PROU RS-T D3-94. It is located on the edge of the galactic core regions, where the Near 3kpc Arm and Far 3kpc Arm converges with the Galactic Bar. Link: Birth of a Colony - the early history of Colonia (Historical POI).Ĭolonia became a hive of activity during mid-3302 after the discovery by CMDR Cly of Jaques Station following the starports misjump to Beagle Point earlier that year. These days more than 70 systems have been settled and more than 100 settlements can be found planetside or in space. Several waves of settlers have followed in the footsteps of Jaques and established themselves in Colonia region.
It took a little longer than expected (the old Coriolis Station wasn’t robust enough to take the drives he wanted…) but he got there in the end. Twenty-two years after David Massey wrote the short story “All That Glisters.” in Stories of Life on the Frontier, Jaques is doing just that. But I like people as well, so in sixty or so years time there will be an invitation going out: anyone who wants to come along can join me on a long trip.” I think I'll do what Augustus Brenquith did and fly off into the unknown and explore new systems.
"I guess it will take me about another fifty years to buy up the rest of this place and another ten to fit it out with enough drive engines. His tale was recounted in the “Stories of Life on the Frontier” booklet included with 1993’s Frontier: Elite II, wherein we learn Jaques owns half the starport and plans on taking it on a voyage across the galaxy just as soon as he buys the rest. Back in the year 3200, Jaques had been running the same bar in the same starport for an inhumanly long period of time. Jaques is a barman, a property owner and a cyborg.
