Gungnir Highport:

Jointly built and maintained by a number of powers in the area as well as the SWC. It is a free harbor designed to ensure that import/export not interfered with to much by the turbulent planetary politics of Gungnir. With this in mind, policing is provided by off-world mercenaries as well as the Confederation Police and the constabularies of the different powers with extra-territorial rights over sections of the Highport. It is fabled, like similar starports on several Balkanized worlds as a center of diplomacy and espionage though that function has the competition of Greve Henrik II university which in any case owns considerable interests on the station. The Imperium maintains a full embassy on Gungnir Highport, both to protect it's citizens and keep an eye on local politics and trade. A few corporations also maintain extraterritorial privileges over sections including both Gremstaatbetrif and Fortarn. The central government is the Ferbundberg which handles such things as extradition negotiations and municipal infrastructure and other common interests.
