Grammle is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial world lacking adequate development for its economy to become prosperous.

• As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
• It is a member of the Solomani Confederation in the Iselle Subsector of Ustral Quadrant Sector.

• This world-system hosts a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces, which may be located on or off-world.

• Labor-3 (Thousands)
  • (Labor is the workforce available for the processing and exploitation of Resources.)
• Infrastructure-3 (Very limited)
  • (Infrastructure is the established technical structures that support exploitation of resources. Infrastructure includes roads, power grids, communications, and factories.)
• Efficiency- -4 (Very poor)
  • (Efficiency reflects the current economic system, and includes sensible legal procedures, appropriate tariffs, customs promoting a balanced work ethic, rewards for merit, and social structures which match ability and job. Negative Efficiency is worse. Efficiency at -1 or less turn the RUs available negative: the Inefficiencies are so destructive as to make the economy a net drain. Such barriers represent a welfare state; cultural influences which do not value wealth, even physical limitations. On the other hand, since some economies have positive efficiencies: positive multipliers increasing available RU. )
• Economic Extension- 12
