Farman 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 Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Adams Subsector of Ruthless Veil Sector.
