World Starport (St)[edit]

Wutan has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions.

Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

Wutan possesses a Technology Level of TL–5.

World Government (G)[edit]

Wutan is governed by a Representative Democracy where government leadership is by representatives elected by eligible voters. What determines an eligible voter varies. The representatives determine policy, including selecting members of the bureaucracy. There can be referenda, votes by eligible voters on specific subjects.

World Law (L)[edit]

Wutan has a low law level. There are few laws, covering only important areas.

For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate. Machine guns, other automatic weapons, portable energy weapons, and other military weapons, body pistols, explosives, and poison gas are typically regulated or prohibited.
