Huangho is a rich, nonindustrial water world, which has 90% or more of its surface covered in an ocean of water.

  • The inhabitants of this world live on the roughly 10% of exposed land mass, in underwater colonies, on city ships, or similar arrangements.
  • It has high-grade living conditions and life on this world is much admired by off-worlders.
  • This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
  • 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.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Huangho 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.

Government[edit]

Each 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.

Language[edit]

Military[edit]

The various worlds, corporations and shipping lines of the Concord have their own security, military and naval forces.
