The Aelann Shipyards have been an integral cog in the interstellar operations of the [[Par'tha Expanse]] for several hundred years. Its employees reflect the multicultural environment of the system. Like all the worlds of the Expanse, Aelann became part of the [[VIR|Empire]] through fiat rather than subjugation. The original shipyards expanded to include an Imperial base. | The Aelann Shipyards have been an integral cog in the interstellar operations of the [[Par'tha Expanse]] for several hundred years.

Hundreds of thousands of dock workers, technicians, loadlift operators, mechanics, [[rolf]] supervisors, and cargo inspectors team in and around the various ships in their docks and cradles. Many of the orbit docks are dedicated to servicing [[VIR|Imperial]] vessels. There is always at least one Imperial destroyer docked in the Imperial zone, undergoing routine maintenance. | ||
The Yards are protected by both patrolling Imperial cruisers and armored defense platforms. The defense platforms are modern facilities manufactured by [[Balivari Industries]]. Most of the orbit docks themselves are over 200 years old, and are continually being updated and revamped to keep them safe and up to current technological standards. | The Yards are protected by both patrolling Imperial cruisers and armored defense platforms.
