History and Background

Narkur'le is best known as a trade nexus for Scanian Nehuitei and other independent traders. Cargo exchange is generally handled by the Halconi' orbital port which boasts A-class facilities.

The planet itself is primarily a rest and recuperation port and boasts only one main city, Hasseim. The only major export, apart from religious artefacts, is Memh.

World Starport (St)

Narkur'le 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. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair.

Point of Interest: Active Religious Communities

Hasseim, the main city, is held in high religious and cultural regard by the Brethren who at the Council of Unification established the basic tenets of their belief -- the Church of the Forever Sabbath whose second prophet, Shura Emmanuel, was born in 105 at what is now the Shrine of the Soul. The Scanians celebrate the birthplace of the famous Rabban Halc Shagraa and his school of Yahei Ve'lma. Throughout the centuries, where there has been a great deal of religious tension between the various religions, the Scanians have managed to maintain harmony.
