World Government (G)

This governmental structure can be stable over long periods of time if the population remains small or geographically separated.
World Law (L)
Tavrniaplcha has no law in practice. It is an Anarchy. On many worlds, this by itself justifies an Amber Zone advisory. There are few laws, covering only important areas. There may be few or no law enforcement officers, the expectation is citizens will bring law breakers to the attention of the Judicial system. Legal proceedings will be fast, with few people involved. For interactions outside of the framework of the laws, cultural norms dominate.
World Culture
The world lies within the Zhodani Shadow, a region strongly influenced by the society and culture of the Zhodani Consulate.
