Painntu is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.
- As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
- It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
- It is a member of the Lancian Cultural Region, a sub-polity of the Third Imperium, located in the Taapvaia Subsector of Gushemege Sector.
- This world has an Imperial Scout base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.

Imperial Landed Nobility[edit]

- Vilani, one of the two official languages of the Imperium.

- Ushi, a significant dialect used throughout Gushemege Sector.
Law[edit]
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[edit]
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.
World Culture[edit]
There is a two-tier system of Lancian marriage. At the first level, marriage is seen as an arrangement for procreation and can be expected to be dissolved once any children are weaned. The second tier is a bond for life, and its breaking is a major trauma in Lancian society. Often such "high" marriages grow out of the partners' final "low" marriage.
- Laws of child custody are simple; first-born to same sex parent, then alternate parent.
