History & Background / Dossier[edit]
World Starport[edit]
Cixntha has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.
Urbanization[edit]
A belt of arcologies linked by subterranean transit tubes circles the twilight region of the planet and houses 90% of the world's 4 billion people. The remainder of the population dwells in mining or industrial outposts, or in subterranean cities on the bright or cold faces.

Government leadership is reduced to little more than figureheads and does not select the bureaucracy leadership or its members.
