Hoa is a rich, pre-agricultural world with a moderate population of over a hundred million, but not yet a billion sophonts in size.

  • The world's agricultural industry is growing and some economists forecast an explosion in this world's agribusiness in the near future as new agro-technology and a more capable labor force are imported.
  • This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
  • This world has high-grade living conditions with a good climate and a non-harmful environment. As such, this world is much sought after with large queues for immigration here.
  • It is an unclaimed Non-Aligned world located in the Farift Subsector of Reaver's Deep Sector.

Mainworld Size (S)[edit]

Hoa is a Meso World between 8,800km and 10,400km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.6G and 0.8G. The horizon will appear about 4.4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)[edit]

Hoa has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. A Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear and will likely be easy for most sophonts to breathe.

Hoa has 35-45% of its surface covered by liquid water. There will be a number of small seas or one larger body of water. Wilderness refueling is possible.

Native Lifeforms[edit]

Abundant native life occupying every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

Native Sophont (NIL): Tlyetrai[edit]

No information yet available.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Several decades ago, Hoa acquired a jump-capable starship. They proceeded to conquer their colony on Luiwaiwuah -- established by STL and out of contact until this point -- in 1086. This proved relatively easy as Luiwaiwuah has a much smaller population and lesser technology level than the homeworld. It is through their possession of this lone ship that the leaders of Hoa hold the Tlyetrai Assembly together.

  • The Tlyetrai of Hoa also attempted to reclaim their colony on Turin, however the inhabitants there were able to fight them off.
  • The future of the Assembly is in doubt as the starship that allows Hoa to maintain control of Luiwaiwuah is beginning to break down.

Hoa has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions.

Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
