Jump map from Travellermap.com

Taroekh is a preindustrial world with a moderate population of over a hundred million, but not yet a billion sophonts.

• As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• This world is part of the Aslan Hierate, controlled by the Tlaukhu Bloc 2, composed of the Syoisuis clan, in the Aslani Subsector of Beyond Sector.

• This world supports a Tlaukhu Base.

Description

History & Background (Dossier)

Taroekh has one odd feature that makes it much coveted.

• The world was the victim, sometime in its past, of a meteoric collision with another sizeable body, possibly a huge iron meteorite.
• The huge astrobleme this collision created contains the extensive nickel-iron remains of both the meteorite, and rich veins of crustal minerals that were unearthed.
• The wealth in minerals is astounding, and the Syoisuis clan has taken extraordinary precautions in the wake of several clan wars to keep the world under their control.

World Starport

Taroekh 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.

Population

900,000,000
