Chulesh was a imperial waste basked, or more precise a so called captive colony ruled by a small police force with high tech weapons from the tech level B downport. Virus arrived late 1132 in form of a modern puppeteer strain called Eshnir. Unlike stupid suiciders or doomslayers, Eshnir waited to reveal until he had infected the complete planetary network.

He contacted a group of prisoners, attacked the police force together with them and took control over the downport. Within a year the port was upgraded to class A, and he produced 2 vessels to expand to Munnarn. On Munnarn he couldn't get a stable foot as the system all ready collapsed to TL:5 from two prior infections.

Chulesh has seen about three dozen TEDs in the last 70 years. Any of them was a puppet, and was replaced by a new human puppet before becoming independent from Eshnir. Eshnir is a tricky politician. Most Chuleshi are not aware of him and think that Chulesh is leading the resistance movement against the FDR.

In 1199 he managed to upgrade to Techlevel 12. Fortunately the FDR had settled at this time, so he had no possibility to extend influence by infection. As he officially supports the FDR protocol of trade and is backed by his human population the FDR has no legal way to disable him.

TRADE WARNING : Eshnir is based on dynamical linked systems at tech levels A-C. Chulesh is declared a Red Zone. The Gushemege Merchantile Guild advised to boycott trade with this planet.
