Ushtar is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or above the standard for Charted Space.
• This is a temperate world, with a climate of pleasant, average temperatures, considered to be an ideal or near-ideal environment by many different sophont species.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Cemplas Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
• This world has an Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.

History & Background (Dossier)

During the Long Night, this system was known as Sar.

Sar Developments Enterprises, a world development company, was later established to promote a colonial environment on Sar. Organized in 43, its majority owner was the Goldarn Trading Company of F'rnow.

The Redeye Plague originated here; since the initial outbreak in the early decades of the Third Imperium, vaccinations against the disease have been standard.
