Averon, whilst part of the Gallente Federation, is close to the border of all 4 empires, and is a smelting pot of all the 4 major empires and criminal cartels. It is considered the festering heart of New Eden, a place where Gallentean hedonism and pleasures of the flesh are catered for by Ammarrian slave trafficking, where Caldari greed is suited to Minmattarian determination and disrespect for the law. As a result, inabitants of Averon are a mix of races, and become "wordly" without even having to ever leave their home. They exhibit the best, and worst of all the cultures that influence this region of Everyshore.
