Bolivar is a high-population, pre-rich garden world with a billion or more sophonts in population size, and a near-ideal utopian environment conducive to most sophonts, but still lacks adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

Description (Astrography & Planetology)

Bolivar has a very attractive and comfortable biosphere, almost ideal for human habitation.

  • Much of the natural beauty of the world is unspoilt, the majority of the population are concentrated in large metropolitan and urban areas.
  • Much of the countryside has restricted access, being owned by private companies, individuals, and the planetary government.
  • Ocean refueling is strictly forbidden.
Bolivar (Da 0240) has two stars in the star system.

History & Background (Dossier)

As the subsector capital, Bolivar is the center of attention and has all the features of a high-technology high population world. What makes Bolivar unique is the near total Solomani-originated population in what is a traditionally a Vilani dominated region. Most of the Solomani are immigrants from Iberian influenced South American continent of Terra (Solomani Rim 1827). The world has a very dynamic socio-political structure, subject to many upheavals during its history — massive immigration, popular discord, commercial exploration, terrorism, military interventions, government incompetence, and assassinations. Much of that is just history thanks to the Bolivar family which used equality and justice to bond the disparate social groups. For the most part Bolivar is a stable, thriving, and exciting world.

Bolivar is the headquarters for the Camrii-La Paz Pan-American Industrial Consortium LIC and the subsector offices for Zirunkariish.

Imperial High (Landed) Nobility

Bolivar (Da 0240), as a member world of the Third Imperium, holds the estate of an Imperial Landed Knight who acts as an Imperial representative to the world, and the estate and fiefdoms of three members of the Imperial Landed Nobility, who oversee affairs regarding the world at an Interstellar and Imperial level.
