Feng Po is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial world lacking adequate development for its economy to become prosperous.
- 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 Mercantile Concord in the Chin Shan Subsector of Crucis Margin Sector.
- This world was colonized by and is controlled from Pu Chou.
Description (Astrography and Planetology)[edit]
This world is part of the Great Crucis Main.

World Government (G)[edit]

Governance of this world is from interests in Pu Chou.
Each Mercantile Concord member system forms a political faction. Alliances between member systems occur and dissolve regularly as the political and economic fortunes of each change. While member systems will quickly unite against an external threat, internally they are prone to intrigue, disunity, even warfare.
World Military[edit]
The various worlds, corporations and shipping lines of the Concord have their own security, military and naval forces.
World Law (L)[edit]
Feng Po has a moderate level with laws covering many areas of government and interaction. These laws are simple enough that most people can act as their own advocate, though for serious issues a professional is recommended. Law enforcement officials will be present, but not in great numbers. Personal concealable firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.
