Trial is a nonindustrial, pre-rich world still lacking adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

• 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 Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Cromar Subsector of Hinterworlds Sector.

• This world-system has a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships, which may be located on or off-world.
• This world-system has a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces, which may be located on or off-world.
