Line 143:
* [[Space Navy]]: Most major factions in Fenspace have a significant naval force, especially after the Boskonian War.
* [[Space People]]: All Fen, initially. Once settlements were founded on Mars and other planets a substantial fraction of Fen lived in gravity wells, but as of the 2020s a majority are (probably) still space-based.
* [[Space Sailing]]: The ''SS Pinafore'' and dozens of others.
* [[Space Truckers]]: Once Fenspace began manifesting a working economy, they were bound to show up. Even earlier -- the Vitamin Man and his imitators/successors were some of the first Space Truckers in Fenspace.
* [[The Spark of Genius]]: Appears to be built into handwavium and anything it creates. Entire government agencies exist solely for the purpose of trying to figure out how handwavium-tech does what it does. (Subverting the trope, sometimes they ''succeed''.)
* [[Standard Sci-Fi Fleet]]: If it's listed under this trope, Fenspace almost certainly has an example of it somewhere. About the only type they don't have is a [[Generation Ships|Generation Ship]], as they're pretty much unneeded. (So far.)
** Fightercraft? Lots of'em, especially in the wake of Operation Great Justice.
** Battleships of all sorts? Same deal.
** Private yachts? Hell, there are a couple actual [[Space Sailing|sailing ships]] out there.
** Worldships? Take a look at the ''Grover's Corners'', a ¾-mile-diameter chunk of West Virginia farmland under a silicon "diamondoid" dome.
* [[Starship Luxurious]]: Deliberately invoked with some craft. Deliberately averted with others depending on function.
