Georgia (also called Yellow Sun, Yellow Dragon or Huang Long)
Georgia orbits White Sun at a distance of 68 AU, taking 571 standard years to make one orbit. It is G0 V star of 1.1 Solar masses, very similar to Sol. System Map
Georgia was the heart of the Independents' territory and the scene of the heaviest and bloodiest fighting. Serenity Valley is on Hera of course, but both Aphrodite and Shadow were heavily bombarded during the war. The largest naval battle of the war took place above Sturges when an Alliance task force intercepted the Independents Space Navy and prevented them from reaching Hera. (Note: only important or terraformed worlds are listed. Most of these planets have additional moons)
