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

  • 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.

  • 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 Oasis Subsector of Zarushagar Sector in the Domain of Ilelish.
