Description (Specifications)

The following languages are among the most commonly encountered within this astrographic region:

History & Background (Dossier)

The Solomani Rim is a highly civilized area with a long history spanning several millennia.

  • The Vegans are among the best known of the indigenous sophont species, having long been caught between opposing factions. Vegan society is still rebuilding and recovering from the collateral damage from the more recent Solomani Rim War.
  • In more recent millennia, the Terrans moved in a number of Terragens species, including the Dolphins. Some believe that many more undiscovered Terragens lifeforms may be hidden on the many worlds of the Rim.

Native Sophonts (NILs): 1105

The following races (sophont species) are believed to have originated within this area:

Demographics: 1105

Significant populations of the following races (sophont species) reside within this area:

Demographics Table: 1105

Significant populations of the following sophont races exist within this area:

Significant Sophont Demographics
(Populations 250+ million)
Race Population Type Remarks
Humaniti* 1,499.9 billion Major Race (Various) Humaniti is the dominant species on the many thousands of worlds within the Third Imperium and while most humans are of Solomani, Vilani, or mixed ancestry, literally dozens of other races and sub-species of humans exist: Minor Human Races, Human Chimerae, Variant Races, ethnic groups, and nearly every other possibility imaginable. Humans are a prolific species and can be found in large numbers throughout vast tracts of both the Third Imperium and Charted Space.
Vegans 0154.8 billion Non-Human Race The Vegans are a strange human-like race of arid, low-gravity, near-vacuum desert-dwellers. Their communal culture with its distinctive tuhuirs has long baffled human observers. Their society and space empire has long been a crossroads and pawn between larger major races.
Aslan 0002.7 billion Major Race
  • Imperial Aslan
The Aslan are a young and powerful race, united in spirit, but not in temporal power. Their often quarreling empire, the Aslan Hierate lies rimward and many Aslan have settled in the Solomani Rim, along both sides of the border. While most Aslan in the region are Imperial citizens, there are populations and enclaves of non-Imperial Aslan in residence.
Dolphins 0001.7 billion Non-Human Race Dolphins, an aquatic species and variant race from Terra, were brought by the Solomani to interstellar space. They have prospered ever since and their keen astrogational skills are in high demand.
Gurungans 0000.4 billion Non-Human Race The Gurungans are a pseudo-octopoidal race of aquatic hexapods, who strongly value their privacy after an initial period of exploitation by outside species. Their homeworld and colonies are largely under imperial stewardship and controls. While largely insular and isolationist, an increasing number of Gurungans have been engaging in interstellar trade and even intercultural exchanges, especially with other aquatic species with whom environmental accommodations are more easily managed.
  • Includes Solomani and Vilani combined.
    • Base calculations made by Nathan Brazil using T5SS data.

SectorSolomani.jpg

The Solomani Rim is best known as the location of Terra, the likely homeworld of the Terrans or Solomani, and possibly of all Humaniti. It is a region of great contrasts:

  • There are many rich clusters and traces of resource-laden systems and worlds.
  • Which were unfortunately very difficult to reach before the advent of FTL star travel due to the presence of many rifts and mini rifts between those rich worlds.
  • There are several sophont species in the sector, but many of these species were killed or went extinct due to the xenophobic excesses of local powers.
  • All in all, the Rim is an astrographic region rich in opportunity and adventure.
  • It is an area of medium to high stellar density.

Capital/s: 1105

  • The Imperial sector capital is at Dingir (Solomani Rim 1222).
  • The Solomani sector capital is at TBD.

The Solomani Rim sector has 400 worlds with an estimated population of 1,659 billion, a per capita income of Cr9,436, and a total economy is BCr15,655,348. These worlds originate an interstellar trade of BCr378,902 through 379 starports (199 Class A, 88 Class B, 77 Class C, 15 Class D) employing 59,121,595 people. Driving this interstellar trade are 33 Agricultural (Ag) worlds, 56 Non-Agricultural (Na) worlds, 26 Pre-Agricultural (Pa) worlds, 64 Pre-Industrial (Pi) worlds, 27 Rich (Ri) worlds, and 28 Industrial (In) worlds. The governments in Solomani Rim maintain 55 Naval bases, 16 Military bases, nine Scout bases, nine Way stations, and one Naval depot. The average technology level is 11 (with most between 8 and 14). The highest technology level is 15 at Easter (Solomani Rim 1802), Khiirshag (Solomani Rim 2010), Aosta (Solomani Rim 2902), Karpaty (Solomani Rim 3001), Shululsish (Solomani Rim 0214), and Yrsai (Solomani Rim 0511).

The Solomani Rim sector contains 585 stars and 4,437 identified planets; 235 monostellar systems, 149 binary systems, 14 trinary systems, and two systems with four or more stars. 326 of the 400 systems (81%) have native gas giants. There are 23 Asteroid (As) belts, ten Desert (De) worlds, 31 Garden (Ga) worlds, 19 Ice-capped (Ic) worlds, 68 Poor (Po) worlds, 42 Vacuum (Va) worlds, and 31 Water (Wa) or Ocean (Oc) worlds.

Solomani Rim has an estimated population of 1,659 billion distributed across 125 High population (Hi) worlds, 79 Moderate population (Ph) worlds, 85 Non-industrial (Ni) worlds, 38 Low population (Lo) worlds, and seven Barren (Ba) worlds. The highest population worlds are Azaremiid (Solomani Rim 1405), Aosta (Solomani Rim 2902), Sebasta (Solomani Rim 0923), Kidashi (Solomani Rim 0528), Twylo (Solomani Rim 1034), and Muan Gwi (Solomani Rim 1717).
