Tanny is an agricultural, nonindustrial, pre-rich world with a growing agro-economy, but still lacks an adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

• 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 world has promising economic future although it needs to recruit a larger labor force in order to achieve the desired prosperity.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Shokee Subsector of Massilia Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
• This world was colonized by and is controlled from Kilarm.

History & Background (Dossier)

A Human race once lived on Tanny, the remnants of a population transplanted by the Ancients, but died out long before the modern spacefaring age.

Tanny was explored by the Geonee Empire under Emperor Bradasee I. This Geonee government emphasized space exploration, surveying most of the Shiwonee and Shokee subsectors over a period of 20 years. The remains of the extinguished Human (but non-Geonee) race at Tanny was of great interest upon its discovery.
