History & Background (Dossier)

After siblings Joachim and Jennifer Hefrin arrived on Khiiszarbi in 745 to establish the United Spinward Worlds, they set up an additional colony on Teldarra.

World Starport

Teldarra has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features 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.

Population

4,000

World Government (G)

Teldarra is governed by a Corporate Polity, having a single corporation with a typical corporate structure as a government. Essentially, this is a "company town" (or world). The typical corporate-run world usually has a single purpose. Examples include mining, agriculture, or other kinds of resource extraction. But rather than a simple base of operations, there are facilities for housing workers and their families, including hospitals, schools, and other infrastructure. How, or if, the children of the workers are incorporated into the workforce varies with companies. The corporation running the world may be a subsidiary of a larger interstellar corporation.

World Military

Each member of the United Spinward Worlds (AKA Hefrin Colony) is authorised to raise a militia and close orbit defence force, but Teldarra's population is too small for this to have occurred.
