Nicosia is a nonindustrial, rich, agricultural world with improving living conditions due to a bustling agro-economy.

  • As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
  • This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
  • Its economy is bustling and an increase in living conditions is expected in the near future.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Nicosia Subsector of Old Expanses Sector in the Domain of Sol.
  • This world has a nearby Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.

Mainworld Topography and Geography[edit]

Nicosia is a cold planet with substantial icecaps at both poles. The two land masses are also at the poles, which makes much of the land mass too cold for cultivation. The equatorial regions are pleasant year-round, however, and are suitable for agriculture.

  • Aldovaan Islands (equatorial)
  • Australis (southern pole-tropics, continent)
  • Borealis (northern polar continent)
  • The Breakers (southern tropics, islands)
  • Karajos Archipelago (northern subtropics-temperate)
  • Septim Isles (equatorial)
