Uegthaerr is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial world lacking adequate development for its economy to become prosperous.
- 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 member of the Ruler of Five in the Terruerr Subsector of Gzaekfueg Sector, which is part of the Vargr Extents.
- This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or over technology standards for Charted Space.
- This world-system has a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships, which may be located on or off-world.

Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
