Jump map from Travellermap.com

Khan is a nonindustrial water world, which has 90% or more of its surface covered in an ocean of water.

• The inhabitants of this world live on the roughly 10% of exposed land mass, in underwater colonies, on city ships, or similar arrangements.
• As a nonindustrial world, it requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. The need to import most manufactured and high technology goods drives the price of these goods up in the open market.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Mimu Subsector of Dagudashaag Sector in the Domain of Vland.
• This world has an Imperial Scout base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
• During the Long Night this world was named Shir.

Description

Khan is a water world, but only just. If this had been a normal planet with mountains of any size then dry land would cover most of the surface.

• However Khan is almost perfectly flat and so the surface is covered to a depth of three metres on average with water.
• The single city is built surrounded by dikes 5 metres in height which have allowed the water to be pumped away and a ‘normal’ city and starport to be constructed.

Khan has three stars in the star system.
