Neighborhood

The Neighborhood, also referred to as Neighbor World (の), is the world from another dimension where Neighbors and Trion Soldiers originated, including Yūma Kuga.

Each country travels across the sea of darkness on their own orbits, like average celestial bodies. Yūgo Kuga called this existence "Planet Nation". Their movements are a bit different from those of planets orbiting the sun, but many of planet nations brush by human world while revolving closer and farther. Every planet runs on a star (which itself is a Trigger). The star must be kept fueled, or it will die, and the land would eventually crumble. Only when they're close to Earth, that they can send out their Expedition Ship and open an interdimensional gate to carry out an invasion. Certain planet nations don't have fixed orbits and fly around freely in the Neighborhood. These have been called "Errant Nations".
