Ozhev is a nonindustrial, rich, agricultural world with improving living conditions due to a bustling agro-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.
• This is a rich world with a prosperous and thriving world economy.
• Its economy is bustling and an increase in living conditions is expected in the near future.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Ozhev Subsector of Fulani Sector.

• It is a balmy tropical world, with a climate of high temperatures.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
• This dangerous world is designated an Amber Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that make it dangerous to visitors.

System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x5 secondary rocky worlds.
• x1 planetoid belt.
• x1 gas giant.

Mainworld Data

The mainworld orbits within the star's Habitable Zone.

• It lies within the zone's warmer inner H+ region
• It receives higher levels of stellar energy.

• The world orbits beyond the star's Jump Shadow.

Mainworld Size (S)

Ozhev is a Big World between 13,600km and 15,200km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 1G and 1.3G. The horizon will appear about 5.4km away. Vessels with only 1G of thrust should avoid landing on this world.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Ozhev has a pressure of 1.50 to 2.49 atmospheres. A Dense Atmosphere requires no survival gear although it may be hard on sophonts not accustomed to it.

• The world experiences high temperatures.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Ozhev has 75-85% of its surface covered by liquid water with a few large continents and extensive islands. Wilderness refueling is possible.

• The warm stormy seas are shrouded in fogs, steams, and hazes.

Satellites:

Ozhev retains two small vacuum moons.

• The worlds orbit once every few weeks.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

• Locally, detailed maps may be available.
• Verified updated charts are constantly sought.
• Detailed survey data commands premium prices.

(Placeholder chart, predominantly watery world.)

Native Lifeforms

Abundant native life occupying every available ecological niche. Its metabolic functions drive the process of atmospheric renewal.

History & Background (Dossier)

Ozhev is relatively busy, with an expanding economy and rising standards of living.

• The resources of the system are being exploited.

It is a Danger World and is designated as an Amber Zone. It presents particular risks and dangers due to the environment or native life forms, laws or customs, or other conditions that are not well understood.

• The world's despotic government and repressive laws qualify it as an Amber Zone.
• Visitors are advised to act with caution.

A number of businesses, organizations, and private interests are active within the system.

• Commercial traffic is relatively infrequent: ships only occasionally visit.
• Commo is filled with signals and private chatter. Communications are in Riftian Anglic.
• One or two commercial navigation beacons may be active.
• A few vessels may be operating among the other worlds and moons that make up the system.

Note that social data, though only 40 years old, may be out of date.

• Verified updated data is constantly sought.

World Starport (St)

Ozhev has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.

World Population (P)

Ozhev has a population of 1,000,000 sophonts (millions).

• This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

Urbanization

A few large urban centers are surrounded by smaller satellite communities.

• The population are concentrated into a single relatively densely populated region.
• Much of the surface of the world remains as wilderness.

World Technology Level (T)

Ozhev possesses a Technology Level of TL–4.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Telephone and telegraphs, widespread printing.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early electricity, hydrocarbon internal combustion.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land: Trains and early automobiles.
  • Water: Clippers and steam ships.
  • Air: Dirigibles, balloons, very basic rockets.

World Government (G)

Ozhev is governed by a Non-charismatic Dictatorship. This is a continuation of the charismatic dictatorship, where the original leadership has died or retired and been replaced by allies or protégés. The justifications for the original change in government remain as well as the assertion of rights to rule.

World Military

Approximately 3000 personnel.

World Law (L)

Ozhev has an extreme law level which covers every area of interaction. Laws are complex, detailed, and difficult to understand. Every interaction with the government requires an Advocate. Law enforcement is omnipresent and strict. Legal proceeding can take months to years to resolve and may involve dozens of people. A world with this law level may be an Amber Zone or a Red Zone. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (with no exception for private residences; visiting starships are only protected so long as they stay within designated starports and approach corridors). Civilian movement is rigidly controlled. Travel documents are frequently checked. There is no legal concept of privacy (save for those who can claim necessity for official government business). The police are free to inspect anyone and anything at any time.
