Backbone Site is a sanct located northwest of Discontinuity. In the last fifty years or so in its life, its COSAC-affiliated government has been attributed great achievements toward social equality for its slightly over 20000 citizens.

Economy

The primary economic functions of Backbone Site arise from its location, networking infrastructure, and industry in electronics construction, recycling and salvage.

Networking

Networking is where Backbone Site gets its name from. This is where bundles of optical cables branch between Benacia, Apollonia, and the isles of Amity and Yardistan from which data transfer goes on further south. Backbone Site is also equipped with a strong POEL array.

How much access the Hunter-Seeker has to the gigabits of data passing through the Backbone Site Internet Exchange Point (BSIX) every second is kept somewhat unclear to outsiders, but the conservative assumption is that it might be monitoring all of the data.
