The system has a population between 10,000 and 10 million, lacking the industrial base to be completely self-supporting. The governance of this world is from Ninlakim (Dagudashaag 2208).

History and Background

The government of Ishkaa are trying desperately to expand the economic base of the planet since they believe that the current single cash crop economy is asking for trouble in the future. They are running into problems with both the producers of Pulmn and the traders who export it, since both are making a great deal of money out of the monopoly and do not wish the situation to change.
