Jiangyin is an arid agricultural planet (mostly cattle and subsistence farming). It was settled early in the colonization, then left virtually to itself for two generations as more profitable and mineral or agriculturally rich planets were discovered. As a result the planet has become home to much isolation, and several "lost colonies," which have created their own rules and customs.
- Parker Strip - Large mine, now also the major spaceport on Jiangyin
- Copperhead - Mining town
- Alkali Flats - salt mines and little else
- Fort Jackson - Original Colonization site - now a spaceport and trading port
- Juniper Springs - A small settlement on the Big Continent of Jiangin. It is built along a large creek, called the Red Run (for its red clay runoff). The settlement once consisted of 12 farm houses, a mill, a tavern, and a general store. It had a landing pad built on a small berm. The buildings have been destroyed and in their place, near the landing pad is a small fort constructed of sixteen cargo containers arranged in a small circle.
- The crew helped the settlement against a group of bandits.
- Ivan Potemkin died and is buried here.
