Abstract
Benz planes comprise three types of geometries: Möbius planes (or inversive planes), Laguerre planes, and Minkowski planes. We first give descriptions of the inversive planes of orders 2 and 3 before giving a unifying definition for all three kinds of Benz planes. Standard references for Benz planes are [4] and [103].
