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

  • 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 still lacks adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.
  • Its economy is growing and living conditions are expected to rise in the near future barring outside forces.
  • This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
  • It is a member of the Ascendancy Pact in the Raelas Subsector of Knoellighz Sector in the Vargr Extents.

History & Background (Dossier)

This world features a water world of Bronze Age fishing and whaling ships crewed by its population of 800,000 Vargr. Uknonueng exports netted schools of fish, sea flora, air (returned from Dzagok for recycling) and whaling. In exchange, the primitives are gifted with seafaring ship hulls, parts, tech-appropriate fuels, air-thinning plants and fishing gear. Without a starport, this planet is kept as boring as possible by the patrolling Corsairs by graciously taking up the duty for the Ascendancy Pact Navy. The local government is left Balkanized and that is to the Corsairs’ desire. Naval inspections of the planet are cheerfully greeted by the USP by appointment under fine-printing of their Hunter’s Bawn, their Letter of Marque. In-system facilities are only above the innermost of eight Gas Giants. This world is a member of the UOSA Secret, (see Ascendancy Pact). It is secretly through Uknonueng that the UOSA Syndicate Privateers conducts black market trade stopovers with the Pact of Gaerr immediately Rimward of this solar system.
