Gurzil Belt Alpha

The Gurzil belt alpha is a protoplanetary disk that orbits the sun of the developing Gurzil system. Still in its infancy, it is a swirling mass of dust, asteroids, and planetessimals. During the Xi'an-Human Cold War (SEY 2530 - 2793), many spacecraft from both sides of the conflict were lost in the Gurzil belt, officially due to poor visibility. Salvage companies under contract from the United Empire of Earth (UEE) government are engaged in long-term cleanup operations to remove wrecks and anti-ship mines that were abandoned in the system after the territory was ceded to the UEE under the terms of the 2789 Akari-Kr.ē Treaty.
