Umasur 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 Commonwealth of Mendan in the Kupid Subsector of Mendan Sector.
• The Commonwealth of Mendan is part of the Julian Protectorate located in the Vargr Extents.

• This world-system hosts a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces, which may be located on or off-world.
• Around 70% of the population is composed of baseline humans and other non-human sophonts.
• Nearly 30% of the population is composed of Vargr.

History & Background (Dossier)

Umasur (Mendan 1317) is a growing world currently being uplifted from a post-apocalyptic mess into a modern star system. The mainworld has great potential, with significant natural resources, but a lack of industry infrastructure prevented the locals from developing further. New technology has been introduced in a controlled fashion, with a focus on the re-training of the local population. Some limited immigration, along with financial incentives to have children have helped increase the population well beyond Second Survey figures.

World Starport

Umasur has a Class B Starport, a good 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 most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
