Khtyeai is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

  • As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.


Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]

This system is located in the Great Rift.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Popular wisdom holds that 'the Aslan got to Khtyeai but went no further'; however, expeditions did push out to spinward, some of them very early in the history of Aslan trans-rift operations. Several exploration ships were lost, though old tales claim that explorers found new worlds and tried to settle them.

Recently, expense has poured into expanding Khtyeai's starport into a major installation capable of building starships, which suggests that the Tlaukhu intend to launch a much larger-scale expedition.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Khtyeai 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 Government (G)[edit]

Khtyeai is governed by a Charismatic Dictatorship. Charismatic governments justify their ability to rule by simply asserting their right to rule. Charismatic dictatorships are typically young governments, coming as a recent change, and rely on the leader(s) to supply head of government.
