Ishag is a high-population, industrial world with a billion or more sophonts in population size. Its economy is rapidly growing and living conditions are expected to rapidly improve barring outside forces.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

Imperial naval procurement was having several obsolete dreadnaughts decommissioned at the fleet depot. Due to a mix up twenty large meson spinal mounts were shipped here by mistake. By the time the confusion had cleared local authorities had installed several deep meson sites on the moons of the gas giants and several in the asteroid belt. The existence of these weapons was made top secret afterward. By local standards the weapons are quite advanced. Local system defense has been uneventful as a result.

History & Background (Dossier)

Ishaq is home to the Darmine, a minor human race. The Darmine are not radically different from their Terran counterparts. Like the Vilani or the Zhodani, any differences are minor. Interbreeding over the millennia has also helped to "wash out" some of the characteristics developed by the Darmine on Ishag.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility

Ishag, as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estates of three members of the Imperial Nobility, who are charged with overseeing the world.
