World Government[edit]

Six Maids is governed by a Representative Democracy where government leadership is representatives elected by eligible voters. What determines an eligible voter varies. The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referendum, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.

World Law Level[edit]

Six Maids has a low law level. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate. Portable energy weapons, body pistols, explosives, and poison gas are typically regulated or prohibited.

Humaniti 100%

World Culture[edit]

Inhabitants seem to be dour and serious people. The common focus is on earning enough to leave and live a better life. As a result, most people live extremely frugally. The local library of actual printed volumes is a popular location, and the librarians are very serious about recovering the lent volumes. There are perhaps 2 food serving locations in the startown; most people cook at home.

There are a fair number of young children here. There is a school system which includes play grounds and a unsuspectedly large sports complex. Watching children's sports is a major focus for the population.

World Language/s[edit]

Anglic.

Urbanization[edit]

The main urban center is partially burrowed into the northern ice cap. It is the startown for the Starport (class E) located 5 km south of the ice pack.
