Inner Council Space

Inner Council Space is a region of the galaxy. As its name implies, Inner Council Space is the central region of the area of space under the control of the Citadel Council. It is bordered on one side by Outer Council Space and by Earth Systems Alliance Space on the other. Inner Council Space also borders two regions not under Council control: the Attican Traverse and the galactic core.

In addition to its centrality, Inner Council Space holds great importance to the Council. First, it is home to the Citadel, the seat of galactic government. Second, it contains the homeworlds of several of the galaxy's sapient races. These include the salarians and the turians, two of the races with representation on the Citadel Council, as well as the hanar and the volus, both of which also have Citadel representation. Finally, the homeworld of the krogan, a non-Citadel race, is located within this region.

Trivia

 * There is a contradiction regarding the location of the Citadel. The Galaxy at War map states that it is located in Inner Council Space while the galaxy map used to navigate the Normandy indicates that it is in Outer Council Space (albeit close to the border with Inner Council Space).
 * Inner Council Space contains the most present-day homeworlds of the galaxy's five regions with at least five. This number may actually be higher as the exact locations of the [dreell]], raloi, and vorcha homeworlds has not been shown.
