Jump map from Travellermap.com

Shushan is a pre-agricultural, nonindustrial garden world.

• As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
• It is a garden world with a near-ideal, utopian environment conducive to most forms of sophontic life.
• It is a pre-agricultural world with an environment suitable for large scale agricultural and livestock industries that have not yet been widely developed.
• Its economy and population are growing and living conditions are expected to gradually rise barring outside forces.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Core Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.

Description (Planetology)
