History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

For a while, this world was contested by the Katowice Conquest and the Old Worlds from which the Conquest leadership descend. Since about 750 the two nations have accepted one another's territory, and a series of joint declarations in the 800s made the border and the status of this world all but permanent.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Zabrze 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)[edit]

Zabrze has a population of 70,000,000 sophonts (tens of millions).

World Government (G)[edit]

Zabrze is governed by a Civil Service Bureaucracy. The leadership of the government takes another form (democracy, dictatorship, oligarchy), but the bureaucracy leadership influences policy. The government leadership may select the bureaucracy leadership, but not its membership. Usually the governmental leadership is divided, or incapable of setting policy, and the bureaucracy provides a stabilizing influence. This ruling bureaucracy may be the full government bureaucractic apparatus or a section with limited jurisdiction but considerable influence, like the military.

World Law Level (L)[edit]

Zabrze 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 blade weapons and firearms, and anything more destructive, are typically regulated or prohibited.

World Technology Level (TL)[edit]

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