Bedurlu is a poor, nonindustrial world.

  • 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.
  • This world has few prospects for economic development.
  • It is a member of the Solomani Confederation in the Thalia Subsector of Ustral Quadrant Sector.

World Government[edit]

The bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucracy or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence like the military.
