History & Background (Dossier)

World Starport

Ugirum has a Class A Starport, an excellent quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

World Population (P)

Ugirum has a population of 50,000,000,000 sophonts (tens of billions).

• High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.

World Demographics

• Arzula Humaniti
  • The Arzula are dominantly Vilani in ancestry, with strong 'minor notes' of Solomani Slavic and Arabic heritages.

World Languages

• Arzulan (Arzula-C, others)
  • Various local languages may be heard, but have no support from the Lorean government.

World Technology Level (TL)

Ugirum possesses a Technology Level of TL–11 or TL-B in Hexadecimal Notation.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land, Water & Air: Personal G-Tubes and advanced gravcraft.
  • Space: Advanced interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
  • FTL: Jump Drive-2.

World Government (G)

Ugirum is governed by a Charismatic Oligarchy, like a charismatic dictatorship in that a larger group has asserted their right to rule. The group will likely have better rules of succession than a single dictator and may last longer, or may transition to a non-charismatic dictatorship.

World Military

No information yet available.

World Law Level (L)

Ugirum has a high law level with laws covering many areas of interactions of people, corporations, and the government. A few worlds with this law level may be Amber Zones. Any interaction with the judicial system requires an Advocate trained in the local legal system. Law enforcement is present almost everywhere, either as people or via technology. Legal proceedings can take weeks to months to resolve and involve a dozen or more people. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (outside private residences or visiting starships).

World Culture

• Culturally, Arzula are best described as a blend of
  • A Vilani conformity and caution,
  • A Solomani taste for relentless expansionism and racial supremacy, and
  • A very old-school political messianic authoritarianism.
