Asteroid Belt in Space the Ultimate Frontier

The three main powers in the asteroid belt in the universe of "Space the Ultimate Frontier" are the Red World Empire (see Mars in Space the Ultimate Frontier), the private, self-governing Ceres Corporation headquartered on the dwarf planet Ceres; and the Free Worlds League, whih includes the majority of the population living in the asteroid belt. The local economy is based upon asteroid mining and a thriving gambling industry, though all three factions sponsor privateers who engage in piratical raids upon rivals.
