Set each system in the expedition as a waypoint, then use "optimize route" to get the shortest possible route.
Two expedition waypoints are located in low security space, so be vigilant and use a fast-aligning ship, ideally with a cloak. The rest are in hisec. Unfortunately, the stations lack any ingame lore descriptions.

TripTik105 Expedition Highlights

Introduction

As a decentralized state that takes pride in local power, the Gallente Federation maintains separate capital facilities for its three branches of government in addition to its symbolic capital of Villore IV.

Locations

While Luminaire VI (Caille) is the Gallente homeworld, it is no longer the Federation's seat of government. In addition to its symbolic capital of Villore IV, the Federal government operates separate stations housing its executive (the President), legislative (the Senate), and judicial (the Supreme Court) government branches. These facilities are located in different systems, and were recently relocated in YC124.

Waypoint 1:

Name: Libertopolis System: Villore Constellation: Vieres Region: Essence Security: 0.9 Note: This is the planet of Villore IV.

Waypoint 1: Libertopolis Location: Villore IV (Planet)

Description: The symbolic and de facto primary capital of the Gallente Federation, Villore IV (also known as Libertopolis) is located in the same system as the Federation Senate and auxiliary offices for the Supreme Court. While the executive and judicial capitals were traditionally also located in close proximity to Villore, even in the same constellation of Vieres, they were recently relocated to new facilities further in the periphery of Gallente space as part of President Celes Aguard's agenda to distribute government power throughout Federation space.

Villore IV itself is more a symbolic location than anything else, lacking the status of an official government branch capital or the cultural significance of Luminaire. As such, it lacks extensive orbital infrastructure, though a modern Gallente Navy Outpost is present near the planet with additional military facilities throughout the system.

Waypoint 2:

Name: Legislative Capital System: Villore Constellation: Vieres Region: Essence Security: 0.9 Note: This is the station of Villore VII - Moon 6 - Senate Bureau.

Waypoint 2: Legislative Capital and Senate Location: Villore VII - Moon 6 - Senate Bureau (station)

The seat of the Federation Senate, this station is predictably located in the Villore system. No major security infrastructure is located near the station, though there are Federation Navy facilities throughout the system.

Waypoint 3:

Name: Old Executive Capital System: Ladistier Constellation: Vieres Region: Essence Security: 0.3 Note: This is the station of Ladistier VI - Moon 4 - President Bureau.

Waypoint 3: Old Executive Capital Location: Ladistier VI - Moon 4 - President Bureau (station)

Ever since the President's HQ was moved to a new station in Parchanier, the old facility in Ladistier has almost felt dilapidated. Despite only being 2 jumps from Villore, no other stations or Gallente installations are present in the system, which is rated as low-security.

Waypoint 4:

Name: Old Judicial Capital System: Parts Constellation: Vieres Region: Essence Security: 0.4 Note: This is the station of Parts VI - Supreme Court Tribunal.

Waypoint 4: Old Judicial Capital Location: Parts VI - Supreme Court Tribunal (station)

Like the old executive capital station in Ladistier, the old Supreme Court facility in Parts holds a shadow of its former importance despite being so close to Villore, and is located in a low-security system. No major Gallente installations are visible in the system, though the Office of the President does maintain auxiliary offices in a station near Parts IV - Moon 3.

Waypoint 5:

Name: New Executive Capital System: Parchanier Constellation: Algintal Region: Sinq Laison Security: 0.9 Note: This is the station of Parchanier IV - President Bureau.

Waypoint 5: New Executive Capital Location: Parchanier IV - President Bureau (station)

Though lacking the splendor it had while under construction during the Federation Day festivities of YC124, this station is still a fitting (and militarized) testament to Federation President Aguard's goal of diversifying government power throughout Gallente space. This new Presidential HQ is located decently far from Villore (albeit in a 0.9 security system) and flanked by a sprawling Navy facility, with an additional Navy outpost located nearby and yet another a few AU away.

Waypoint 6:

Name: New Judicial Capital System: Bereye Constellation: Osnins Region: Everyshore Security: 0.9 Note: This is the station of Bereye III - Supreme Court Tribunal.

Waypoint 6: New Judicial Capital Location: Bereye III - Supreme Court Tribunal (station)

Like the new Presidential station, the new seat of the Federation's Supreme Court is located decently far from Villore in the (0.9) system of Bereye. Interestingly, both the Federation Navy and Roden Shipyards already had a substantial presence here. Whether this has any bearing on the decision to move the Supreme Court to this system is open to interpretation.
