History & Background (Dossier)

• Visitors are advised to act with caution.

World Starport (St)

Harantz has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Population (P)

Harantz has a population of 3,000,000,000 sophonts (billions).

• High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.
• The population has Zhodani, Imperial, and Vlazhdumecta heritage.
• Many families can trace their ancestry to pre-Long Night Vilani colonists.

Linguistic Topography

• Local languages descended from Vlazhdumecta.
• Riftian Anglic, a dialect of one of the two principal languages of the Imperium.
• Zdetl, the language of the Zhodani and the Zhodani Consulate.

World Technology Level (T)

Harantz possesses a Technology Level of TL–11 or TL-B in Hexadecimal Notation.

World Government (G)

Harantz is governed by a Charismatic Oligarchy, like a charismatic dictatorship in that a larger group has asserted their right to rule. The group will likely have better rules of succession than a single dictator and may last longer, or may transition to a non-charismatic dictatorship.

World Law (L)

Harantz has an extreme law level which covers every area of interaction. Laws are complex, detailed, and difficult to understand. Every interaction with the government requires an Advocate. Law enforcement is omnipresent and strict. Legal proceeding can take months to years to resolve and may involve dozens of people. A few worlds with this law level may be a Red Zone and others will be an Amber Zone. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (with no exception for private residences; visiting starships are only protected so long as they stay within designated starports and approach corridors).
