Yangikent is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

  • As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
  • It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Katanga Subsector of Beyond Sector.
  • This world supports a Military Base
  • It is the homeworld of the Gmina sophont race.
  • This world has a colony on Djend, established in 455.

History & Background (Dossier)

The Human Yangi (who are of Sindalian Empire descent) keep the native Gmina on reservations, and don't respond well to offworlder attempts to investigate.

World Starport

Djend has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.
