Zimmel is an agricultural, nonindustrial, pre-rich garden world with a near-ideal, utopian environment conducive to most sophonts, but still lacks an adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

  • 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.
  • Its economy and population are rapidly growing and living conditions are expected to quickly rise barring outside forces.
  • It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Dunea Subsector of Core Sector in the Domain of Sylea.
  • This world was also once known as Riid.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Zimmel cooperates closely with Uundizi and Bussirka. The trio would very much like to incorporate the subsector's Chanestin worlds into what could become a vibrant local economy. The separatist sentiment of descendants of the Chanestin Kingdom cultures complicates this effort.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Zimmel 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.
