The Seven Military Districts
Seven territorial commands, each anchored by a standing fleet and a distinct strategic responsibility.
Territorial defense
The Confederation divides its territory into seven Military Districts. The Sol District covers the inner fifty light-years. The other six extend beyond that boundary into the wider territories.
District garrisons comprise the 20th through 26th Fleets. Their territorial responsibilities differ from those of the mobile battle and Expeditionary Fleets that operate outside the district structure.

| Delphi | 22nd Fleet | Settled core systems and the Sol–Delphi Corridor. |
| Draconis | 23rd Fleet | Rimward watch toward the exploration limit. |

Garrison and mobile forces
A district fleet’s number identifies its place in the territorial system. It should not be confused with a similarly named mobile formation. The 20th Fleet is the Sol District garrison; lower-numbered line battle fleets belong to the Confederation’s mobile arm.
