Native Lifeforms

Efforts to increase oxygen content with imported flora have been underway for centuries, already doubling the oxygen composition of the atmosphere.

Most land life is invasive; ocean life is almost exclusively native.

History & Background (Dossier)

Jarnac was resettled by a colonisation effort led by An'Dulach, a younger member of a noble family from Drayne (and a former Naasirka executive of considerable wealth). Departing from Drayne in 628, An'Dulach's ships reached Jarnac in 632.

This world is the capital of the modern Jarnac Pashalic.

Jarnacis view themselves as a peaceful, prosperous and progressive people. In the Vanguard Reaches Sector, Jarnac's per capita income is third, behind only Ralnn -- a world embroiled in the warfare of the Tellerian Cluster -- and Nielkladlief, a Zhodani world portrayed by Jarnacis as a resort world for the psionic elite.

World Starport

Jarnac 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.

• There is an associated Naval Base, hosting the headquarters of the Jarnac Pashalic Navy.

World Government (G)

Jarnac is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government takes another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy, and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. This ruling bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucractic apparatus or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence, like the military.

World Military

The Jarnac Pashalic does not have a standing army, leaving internal security functions to its Ministry of Public Safety.

World Economy

Private enterprise is extremely limited on Jarnac, as no citizen is allowed to profit from the labour of another. Nearly all private business falls into three categories; a sole proprietor with no employees (who may use artificial beings to provide additional labour), a partnership in which all partners profit equally, or a cooperative consisting of nothing but subcontractors.

Trade

The Gateway Consortium, a major commercial power within the Corellan League, maintains its own diplomatic staff and consular office on Jarnac.
