History & Background

The Grand Duchy of Marlheim annexed Mirak in 1067. Marlheim has had difficulty absorbing its acquisition; Mirak remains under military rule.

Mirak is the source of the latest tensions between the Grand Duchy of Marlheim and the Confederacy of Duncinae following the MacBeth Affair.

World Starport (St)

Mirak has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes 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.

World Population

70,000,000

World Government (G)

Mirak has a Captive Government or Colony. The world is ruled by an external government, there is no self-rule. A colony or conquered area. The local government is an oligarchy appointed by, and answerable only to, the external government.

This world is under Grand Duchy of Marlheim military rule.

World Law (L)

Mirak has a low law level. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate. Machine guns, other automatic weapons, portable energy weapons, and other military weapons, body pistols, explosives, and poison gas are typically regulated or prohibited.

Languages

• Kdaar
• Platt

Platt -- itself influenced by languages including Trokh -- combined with a form of Reavers Cant to produce Kdaar; the modern version of which, deliberately engineered by the totalitarian government, is Marldaar.
