Brita-Kajarro: Due to the Imperial drydock and shipyards here, Brita is probably the most second most defended planet in the Astoria sector. Although a nondescript planet with only one city, that city dominates a 10 mile section of the continent.
The system was chosen for its closeness to the nearby asteroid belt. Navigating in and out is far more difficult, but with the mining and refining the ore (supplemented with a supply from Yutani), ship construction is far more simple. The nearby asteroids are launched at an unpopulated portion of the planet, burning off the useless ore as they re-enter and making them more accessible than if mined in space.
Sorini: What can you say about the Imperial capital of the sector. The cities construction tends to look a lot like Matsomoto's vision of Japan from Star Blazers- lots of tube cars, angular buildings, and underground cities. Grand Moff Foxton runs a tight ship, keeping her territory quiet and orderly. The oppressive fist of the Empire keeps the rebellion off planet in all forms, even as a rumor.
Residia: Probably the major trading world in the north quadrant, just behind Corellia in shipping, exporting and importing. The best pilots may be Corellian, but the most insane pilots are Residian.
Berin: Barren, devastated by the Empire as a show of force to the sector.
Venize: A truly wondrous resort world- operating most of the time in direct conflict with nearby St. Croix.
Derham: The sectors main university world. Although not nearly as well informed or worldly as CSA one, Derham gets on quite well.
Albolen: Westworld entertainment theme parks.
Serrano: The academic center of the sector, located on an ocean planet.
Gothica: The standard of living is low here, imposed by big business out to rape the planet. The citys are dark, and laid out as if the designers were on drugs. Not a happy place to live.
Curran: Museum/library plains and wet hydrosphere
Rizzardi: Outside the domed cities, life is impossible. Inside however, Rizzardi is a comfortable place to live. There is only one domed city, but it has spread to many sub-complexes- almost cities into themselves. Several of the sub-complexes are automated factories, churning out high tech goods for sale and distribution. All space ship traffic is handled through the sizable orbiting platform. Access planetside is through one of several beanstalk elevator systems. Goods are mainly exchanged at the station, with mainly only natives and tourists going planetside.
Kalonne: A forest planet, which supplies much of the sector's agricultural needs.
Quinsay: Remote research on a volcanic planet.
Ravalox: A truly boring planet, with a orbiting space station being the world's only interesting bit. Ravalox Station is a truck stop, cargo transfer point and Hyperspace reference point all rolled into one.
Curaris: A jungle frontier planet barely scraping by.
Ghotus: An advanced colony on a desert world.
Barga: The Empire conquered this atomic level planet and began exported the residents as slaves.
Drax: A mid tech level trading planet, mostly caves and tunnels.
Varda: An ice world slightly more comfortable than Hoth, located in an isolated region of the sector. The planet has more trees and rivers, more like a Siberian tundra than a wasteland. Varda is used mostly by two pirate and smuggler groups as a base of operations. The Black Hole gang and Haliey's Raiders mostly ignore each other and operate normally.
Gavigan: A mining world, it's ecosystem ruined by the Oplem Mining corp, who owns the planet.
Avendell: An asteroid belt used by independent miners to supply Yutani with ore.
Yutani: A major manufacturing planet, taking in all the raw material from Gavigan and Avendell. The planet is a dark, oppressive place- you hardly ever see the sun, and breath masks are required for long term trips outdoors.
Sathar: One of the major battles of the civil war was fought here, with the Evil Lord Darth Vader spearheading a major purge of the rebellion's Jedi, and coming close to destroying the command of the north quadrant.
Coriolis: A swamp world populated by intelligent humanoid rats.
