Welzer is a preindustrial, moderate population world with over a hundred million, but not yet at a billion sophonts in population size.

• As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support 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 cold world with an overall climate that is at the lower temperature range of human-congruous sophont endurance.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Karse Subsector of Old Expanses Sector in the Domain of Sol.
• This world has a nearby Imperial Way Station.
• The governance of this world is from Samosk (Old Expanses 2329)
