History & Background (Dossier)

The Jewel Class Private Yacht was built here.

Languages

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility

Sharenga, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial Landed Knight who acts as an Imperial representative to the world, and the estate and fiefdoms of three members of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversee affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.

Economy

Sharenga has evolved a hybrid economy that allows greater integration of offworlders into Lancian society. On Sharenga, all Lancians are paid a flat wage in Imperial credits, and offworlders are only allowed to import credits in proportion to their length of stay. The penalties for smuggling currency are severe. The flat wage is "open to discussion" and there are set conditions under which it is varied by the state.

Law

Lancian courts, called Ammeinha, are made up of 13 person "benches", a combined judiciary and jury, similar to Solomani Courts Martial. Each district's Ammeinha reflects the district demographics. The emphasis is very much on trial by one's peers.

World Military

Most Lancians do not like the idea of permanent military forces, and even less the idea of serving in them. As a result most standing forces, the Pulehov, are small and often composed of non-Lancians. In times of war, the combined Lancian community -- the peoples' army, the Silkku -- is the ultimate defense of this and other Lancian worlds.
