Description (Astrography & Planetology)[edit]

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]
Markasher's rich belts have been exploited for centuries by the Conglomerate, a collection of mostly Sylean mining concerns. Markasheri mining 'clans' work in concert to extract the resources from the belts that are needed to build infrastructure for the high-population worlds of the Kaskii Subsector.
World Starport (St)[edit]
Markasher has a Class E Starport, a frontier quality installation with few expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of a downport.
World Population (P)[edit]
Markasher has a population of 4,000,000,000 sophonts (billions).
- High Population Worlds like this tend to have huge consumer markets.
World Demographics[edit]
- Sylean: 50%
- Imperial mainstream Humaniti (Vilani-Solomani): approaching 50%
- Scattered representatives of various other sophont species may be found here.
Linguistic Topography[edit]
The following languages are among the most commonly used here:
- Core Anglic: One of the principal dialects of one of the two official languages of the Third Imperium.
- Sylean: The traditional Sylean tongue, maintained as a major language within the Sylean Worlds.
- Vilani: One of the two official languages of the Third Imperium.
World Military[edit]
As with all of the Sylean Worlds save Capital and Yirsh Poy, Markasher is demilitarised and has been since the Civil War.
World Law[edit]
Imperial law is almost completely compatible with the Syleans' Maarist religious law. Sylean marriage customs (which include polygamy and concubinage) are the most likely points of contention. Syleans also come into frequent conflict with strong intellectual-property laws in other Imperial cultures.
World Culture[edit]
The major Sylean religion is Maar Zon, centered on the holy book, the Maar Ki Zon.
