Jump map from Travellermap.com

Divkar is a nonindustrial, pre-rich world still lacking adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

• 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 member of the Third Imperium in the Rure Subsector of Gushemege Sector in the Domain of Vland.
• This world has an Imperial Scout base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
• It is the homeworld of the Traypih, a proto-sophont species and minor race.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

Mainworld Data

Mainworld Size (S)

Divkar is a Meso World between 7,200km and 8,800km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.4G and 0.57G. The horizon will appear about 4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Divkar has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. A Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Divkar has 15-25% of its surface covered by liquid water or ice. There may be a few small seas. Wilderness refueling is possible. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are Hell Worlds or Poor Worlds depending on their atmosphere.

Native Sophont: Traypih

A race of squid-like proto-sophonts who dwell in the shallow lagoon-like seas of Divkar, thriving in the warm upper layers and the abundant mud flats. The Traypih are in the process of developing full intelligence and are thus under the intense and watchful eye of the IISS.

History & Background (Dossier)

A colony of Ael Yael has established itself here, as the world meets their requirements. Wealth is sent back to Jaeyelya. Since the Ael Yael generally have good relations with the IISS, they are cooperative with the general effort to protect the wider environment of Divkar.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility

Divkar, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial Landed Knight who acts as an Imperial representative to the world, and the estate of a member of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversees affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.

• It holds the estate of an Imperial knight, the Imperial representative to the world.
• It holds the estate of an Imperial baronet.

History-Era: New Era

Divkar was lucky. It had air and water, a moderate population and a limited technology due to IISS interdiction. The main city was often visited by tourists and scientists surveying the Traypih population. Because of its low tech level virus had no impact to the economy. Even vice versa; with recontact by the Last Sane, steady growing trade allowed them to build a class-C tradeport. As with the fall of the Imperium the IISS interdict is also gone, and refugees from the barren worlds have settled here. Each village sends a group of representatives to the annual municipal moot. The barnstorms and votes are distributed over a radio network around the whole planet. The most unusual thing about the representatives is certainly, that once they are elected and send to the moot, they take their seat as long as they have the vote of confidence of their village. If they lose it, they have to leave the planet by law.
