Mora (World) Synopsis

Mora is a high-population, industrial world with a billion or more sophonts in population size.

Description

Mora sits fairly near the centre of the Domain of Deneb , astride the Spinward Main. The bulk of the world's 10 billion population resides in a sprawling mega-city, straddling the equator and covering most of the major continent. Duchess Delphine Adorania Muudashir currently holds the reins of power in the world's matriarchy.

The Mora system's belt is home to most of the significant biotech industries in the Spinward Marches. The belt environment has provided tham with a safe and flexible environment for research while being positioned at a large nexus of trade routes.

Mora has two asteroidal moons of great age. Current theories hold that they are cometary remains.

History & Background (Dossier)

Mora was settled in 60 and financed by Ling-Standard Products. It was soon a thriving trade centre, building new ships, overhauling old ones, and producing other manufactured goods on the side. At one end of the trade routes through to the Sword Worlds Confederation and the Darrians, Mora became known as the "Gateway to the Marches".
