Platinum City

Platinum City was a domed shelter city on Ganymede originally designed to hold refugees from the Star War. Because of budget cuts ans little Earthforce protection; the city quickly degenerated into an overcrowded internment camp for debtors. Also, physical and mental medical attention was inaccessible in the city. Eventually, some in the city started forming Raid Gangs and robbing the inhabitants of the city. Finally, on July 8th 2258, several raid gangs and inhabitants seized the Platinum Processing Center and hold eighteen employees and guards hostage. The Ganymede Refugee Riots eventually ended because the President of the Terran Federation ordered troops to retake the city by force, killing 420 residents, including Peter Vanderbilt himself. After hearing this, public opinion turned against the city and the city was shutdown.
