Colima is a nonindustrial world, that requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.

  • In a technological universe, societies without industrial capability generally suffer as nearly all manufactured and high tech goods must be brought in at significant cost.
  • As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
  • It is a member of the Grand United States of Quesada, which is a member state of the Solomani Confederation, in the Quesada Subsector of Aldebaran Sector.

Mainworld Data

Colima is a standard-sized world with a dense atmosphere.

Mainworld Geography & Topography

Colima has standard ice-caps, and an extensive world-ocean. 2 continents are present, and numerous archipelagoes.

Colima appears to be an older world, but its core has significant radioactives, which continues to power strong tectonic movement and an unusually strong planetary magnetic field.

Mainworld Map

No information yet available.

Native Lifeforms

Malantea: a 30kg spider analog with 10 legs, four of which are specialized, and a 4-wing array which is strong enough to allow periods of hovering. Intelligence estimates are conflicting.

History & Background / Dossier

No information yet available.

World Starport

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

World Technology Level

Colima possesses a Technology Level of TL–6.

World Government

Colima 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 Level

Colima has no law in practice. It is an Anarchy. On many worlds, this by itself justifies an Amber Zone advisory. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate.

World Military

No cohesive world military exists.
