Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Tizayuca has a pressure of 0.10 to 0.42 atmospheres. The very thin pressures require a respirator or Oxygen Mask. TL–5 or more advanced survival gear is required to settle this world.

Mainworld Geography & Topography

Few steep mountains remain on Tizaycua but nearly the entire continent of Sierra is an upland with an average altitude of 5,000 metres above sea level. Tizayuca's low gravity lessens the effects of altitude on atmospheric density but most of Sierra still remains uninhabited and will cause hypoxia in most. The majority of the Tizayucan live on the continent of Hidalgo, mostly within the broad Silver River basin that serves as a breadbasket for the world. Nearby mountains and forests seeded with imported flora provide opportunities for recreation.

History & Background (Dossier)

Tizayuca has grown to be the wealthiest per capita world in the Kajaani Triumvirate, with an economic output from its 70 million people exceeding that of the three billion on Pernikka. Tizayuca prides itself as the most liberal world in the Triumvirate, with little government interference in the business of its citizens.

The first group of colonists on Tizayuca were members of a movement to unionise some of the Consortia businesses on Lyheric. In its own words, the Tizayuca Movement wasn't anti-business but anti-plutocrat, calling for more equitable distribution of economic gains. When offered a chance to build a new world according to their principles and enough equipment to make the dream viable, most members saw it as a better outcome than imprisonment on civil disorder charges.

Tizayuca has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
