{{Update|Should be updated to reflect that EVE Uni is no longer in Aldrat}}

{{related class|Topology of New Eden}}At first glance, New Eden is a complex mess of points. In addition to that, jump gates often don't connect to the closest systems. There are many arms and dead ends, and a number of highways - routes that are particularly short for the distance they cover. There are also high sec chokepoints: Systems that you need to pass through in order to travel between two given high sec systems without leaving high sec. Since the ingame map arranges systems by their coordinates, some of these relations can be hard to see, but they are useful to know for pilots in the high-sec trading or hauling businesses.

(NB: EVE University is no longer based in Aldrat)

The main idea you should take away from this picture is that in order to travel from e.g. Aldrat (in Minmatar space) to Jita (in Caldari space) without leaving high sec, you need to travel through either Gallente space, or through Amarr/Ammatar space. There are shorter routes, but they all involve at least one low sec system.
