World Starport (Sp)[edit]
Higli 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.
Law[edit]
Lancian courts, called Ammeinha, are made up of 13 person "benches", a combined judiciary and jury, similar to Solomani Courts Martial. Each district's Ammeinha reflects the district demographics. The emphasis is very much on trial by one's peers.
Military[edit]
Most Lancians do not like the idea of permanent military forces, and even less the idea of serving in them. As a result most standing forces, the Pulehov, are small and often composed of non-Lancians. In times of war, the combined Lancian community -- the peoples' army, the Silkku -- is the ultimate defense of this and other Lancian worlds.
World Culture[edit]
There is a two-tier system of Lancian marriage. At the first level, marriage is seen as an arrangement for procreation and can be expected to be dissolved once any children are weaned. The second tier is a bond for life, and its breaking is a major trauma in Lancian society. Often such "high" marriages grow out of the partners' final "low" marriage.
- Laws of child custody are simple; first-born to same sex parent, then alternate parent.
History-Era: New Era[edit]
Higli was nuked by the last of Lucan's Black War strikes in 1129. The Government managed to survive the chaos, and is still a more or less a charismatic oligarchy. As a government decision the system's economy is stable TL–8.
Higli is showing strong Lancian tradition, and import of TL–9+ equipment is strictly regulated to protect local production.
Visitors who want to leave the extrality zone have to pay 1000 local credits per week, as public facilities like the monorails, theaters, and even public restaurants are free to any citizen without any further controls. Even if 1000 credits per week is 4 times the local income, tourist enjoy the all inclusive approach, if they can pay the lumped sum. As such, visa is limited to 2 weeks, to avoid becoming overcrowded by offworld tourists.
