Segan is a poor, high-population desert Client State of the Imperium located in Atsah Subsector of Deneb Sector. With 5 billion inhabitants, it is the most populated world in the subsector. The system is part of the Atsah Cultural Region and contains a Naval Base.

Segan is a hot planet with two moons, one orbit inward from the habitable zone.

About 30% of the population are Vargr, and Segan is the fief of the Segae Clan. Some 400 million humans are found in underground cities, clustered near the starport. These cities are fitted with completely independent, closed ecologies. The remainder of the population are a local Sophont people referred to as Segani.

The Lurent planetoid ships may be found in the system’s Oort clouds.

Non-canon: Segan's current ruler, Gishma Parimesha, is admired both for her personality and her administrative ability. She wields most of the powers of government personally but delegates enough authority to her subordinates to quiet any minor grumbling. The law level of 11 seems oppressive to outsiders, but pleases the orderly, quiet-tempered Seganites.
