Sulawesi 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 member of the Solomani Confederation in the Nanfeng Subsector of Canopus Sector.

History & Background / Dossier[edit]

Originally Indochinese, the inhabitants of this world are also known as Sulawesi practice extensive agriculture on the world's wide, fertile plains.

  • For decades, the world was content in its quiet prosperity, but the Party has recently attempted to infiltrate itself into Sulawesian life. A coup, arranged by SolSec and various business interests, deposed the rightful Rajah and replaced him with a Party lackey. Religious leaders and village headmen have denounced the new Rajah, and the Confederation has sent in pacification troops to bolster the new regime.

World Starport[edit]

Sulawesi has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the 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 only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

    • Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
    • Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships

World Government[edit]

Sulawesi 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.

  • Culturally isolated, its natives grouped in small, rural villages, Sulawesi is ruled by a figurehead monarch, the Grand Rajah. Traditionally, government has been the province of the village headmen.
