Eranin was the starting system for all players during the Elite: Dangerous beta. As an agricultural system it sold agricultural products cheap, and particularly valued farming equipment. A profit could be made by selling [[Natural Fabrics]] to [[I Bootis]] and bringing [[Crop Harvesters]] back. Eranin was regarded as mostly secure, although [[interdiction]]s were still fairly common. | Eranin was the starting system for all players during the [[Elite: Dangerous]] beta.

It was suspected that the rebels were being supplied with weapons by [[Federation]] special operations teams, however no concrete proof was exposed. Commanders took part in the conflict through both trading and ship to ship combat. Demand was high for medical supplies in [[/Azeban City/]] for the treatment of individuals wounded in the fighting, and for weapons on the [[black market]] for use by the rebel forces. | Federation-aligned rebels in Eranin started a [[civil war]] against the ruling independent government, in protest to the celebrations and in the hope of re-conquering the system for the Federation.
