You begin affiliated with one the four great empires, Amarr, Caldari, Minmatar or Gallente, and placed in the heart of your Empire's controlled space.

Space consists of star systems. Each of these is assigned a security rating, from 0.0 (Lawless) to 1.0 (Secure). Many star systems form a constellation, a group of constellations form a region and sGrand Fantasiaral regions can constitute an Empire.

In addition to those large empires, though, there are also Regional Alliances who endeavor to control the untamed systems on the outskirts of known space.. These are run by player controlled corporations, giving them the ability to use the lucrative resources in non-empire space.
