A non-industrial, non-aligned world located in the Jewell Subsector of the Spinward Marches. Utoland used to be an Imperial member world, but became independent as a result of the armistice that ended the Third Frontier War. It was always a stagnant backwater, but did manage to muddle along. In 1106 it was taken over by the recently expansionistic Arden, which imposed a colonial administration on it and proceeded to strip it of resources, ostensibly to bolster its own developing economy, though some economists wonder just how much an economy as tiny as Utoland's can help one as big as Arden's.
Utoland's population of 40,000 live mostly in a single major city -- Utane -- and its suburbs. A group of mines lie clustered about 100 km south of Utane and is connected to the city by a monorail line.
Alternate Version (Click Show to reveal)
The population consists of colonists from Arden (Spinward Marches 1011), who landed in 1106. Since then the colony has struggled and is now considered to be a failure, though the port is a commercial success. A decision will soon be made to recolonize or pull out. The spectacular mountain ranges of the main continent are home to a spectacular variety of animal life, and the possibility exists that tourism might save the world's economy. Funding is being sought to open a hunting/outdoor sports complex with its own downport. Given the world's position, this seems unlikely.
