History & Background / Dossier[edit]

Lagash (world)|Lagash is a high-population garden world with one small moon, located in Sol Subsector of the Solomani Rim.

Imperial High / Landed Nobility[edit]

Lagash, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of two members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.

World Starport[edit]

Lagash 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 Technology Level[edit]

Lagash possesses a Technology Level of TL–15 or TL-F in Hexadecimal Notation.

World Government[edit]

Lagash 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.

Historical Data[edit]

The name of the world Lagash is of ancient Sumerian origin. Lagash was a Sumerian city northwest of the confluence of the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, in what would later become the southeastern portion of the Terran pre-starflight nation-state of Iraq.

Lagash was first settled during the Ziru Sirka; the Vilani established a series of smaller outposts on the worlds of the “Lagash Trace” trailing from Nusku (Solomani Rim 1822). Following the Third Interstellar War the Vilani abandoned these worlds which were then claimed by the Terran Confederation. Terran settlement began in earnest following the Eighth Interstellar War.

Toward the end of the Long Night Lagash became an important trade link with the Vegan and Vilani worlds to Coreward. Lagash welcomed the Imperium and soon became a loyal member.

Under the rule of the Solomani Confederation Lagash was considered a hotbed of radical ideology and subject to SolSec purges. As a result, following the Rim War Lagash was rewarded for its moderate views by the Imperium with an early lifting of military rule. In 1032 Lagash was made subsector capital, displacing the traditional role of Terra (Solomani Rim 1827). The current ruling noble family, the von Ritterburgs, were elevated to ducal status in 1033 after the former Duke of Sol died without heir.

The Pan-Galactic Friends of Life, an ecological activist group with chapters throughout the Imperial worlds of the Solomani Rim, was founded on Lagash in 1073.
