PLANETARY DETAILS:
[2621] Though the economies of the six member states prospered under the Department of Economic Relations, it was not enough for First Lord Nicholas Cameron. Following his father's vision, Nicholas announced in 2621 his intention to finish uniting the member states' economies by creating the Star League Dollar. This became the standard currency everywhere. The member states were allowed to print the new currency for their own realms under close supervision, but the Star League government determined the amount.

First Lord Nicholas also set up the central Stock Exchange (CSE), which allowed ten regional exchange businesses to trade shares in foreign companies. In addition to aiding the economy, the exchanges were supposed to promote peace between the realms, as having economic interests in neighboring states made war less attractive.

The Central Stock Exchange was located in the Terran city of London. The other stock exchanges and the Star League mints were set up on border worlds between the member states. They were grouped into commerce cities built by the Star League for the use of economists, brokers, and company executives. The cities' protection came from the SLDF, which usually had a major military base nearby.

Moniesville on Preston, was one such city; it's mint produced currency for both the Lyran Commonwealth and Free Worlds League. With collapse of the Star League, the border world locations of the commerce cities proved to be their downfall, as they soon became targets. Moniesville was destroyed early in the First Succession War.

[3075 Update]
The Star League Ministry of Finance & Revenue re-instate the Preston Stock Exchange to help integrate FWL and LA economies. And becomes the testing ground for the re-creation of the Star League Dollar.
