How Gallia developed/stolen their own Lanes and Gates?

[Dab]

Better answer me how Ageira managed to keep Trade Lane/ Jumpgate secret for centuries.

HOW??!!!! What, in those centuries noone was able to develop/reverse engineer alternative? even with worse stats.

Noone was able to bribe, capture and interrogate, steal, /put your choice here/ their personnel/scientists, put a spy into production facilities FOR CENTURIES?

Are you kidding?

(well, thats more like question not to Disco, but to those who wrote freelancer lore and to quality of that lore...)

Samura is currently in the process of trying to steal that technology, but laws and trade regulations are making it a long, difficult, and expensive process.

Gallia is not bound by those laws, plus the gate/lane system development was a necessity for Gallia to grow without Sirius knowing of its existance, and received substantial government funding.
