Uurku 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 main world which is a satellite of either a gas giant or another world.
- It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Arnakhish Subsector of Dagudashaag Sector in the Domain of Vland.
- It is the homeworld of the Ashdak Meshukiiba, a sophontic species and minor race.
Description (Planetology)
The world is a satellite of the innermost gas giant Stayla.
- Uurku appears from the available geophysical and planetological evidence to be a fragment of a larger body.
- Scars on the surface of the other satellites of Stayla seem to indicate a multiple collision, possibly from a body that wandered too close to the gas giant, was struck, then broke up under the massive tidal forces.
History & Background (Dossier)
