Myrthe is a nonindustrial, pre-rich world still lacking adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

• 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 is a part of the Third Reformed French Confederate Republic, a member state of the Solomani Confederation, located in the Star Bridge Subsector of Aldebaran Sector.

• This world has a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships.
• This world has a Military Base, usually associated with military ground forces.

	Remarks

It is a sister star to the primary of Reunion system. Despite their slight differences in mass and luminosity, the two have almost identical chemical properties.

• The star has an approximate age of 4.2 billion years.

System Data

The worlds of the system have been surveyed. They consist of:

• The mainworld.
• x9 secondary rocky worlds.
• x3 planetoid belts.
• x1 gas giant.

Mainworld Data

Myrthe has a rotation period of 24.25 hours, which matches well with the fundamental biological rhythms of Humaniti.

Mainworld Size (S)

Myrthe is a Meso World between 8,800km and 10,400km in diameter. The world has a standard gravity between 0.6G and 0.8G. The horizon will appear about 4.4km away.

Mainworld Atmosphere (A)

Myrthe has a pressure of 0.71 to 1.49 atmospheres. A Standard Atmosphere does not require survival gear and will likely be easy for most sophonts to breathe.

Mainworld Hydrosphere (H)

Myrthe has 15-25% of its surface covered by liquid water or ice. There may be a few small seas. Wilderness refueling is possible. Water for the inhabitants needs to be imported and extensively recycled. These worlds are Hell Worlds or Poor Worlds depending on their atmosphere.

Satellites

Myrthe retains a single small moon named Riddle.

• It orbits once every few weeks.

Mainworld Geography and Topography

No centrally held map of the world exists within AAB Library Data records.

Myrthe is a relatively dry world, with a single small ocean in a depression between the 40th and 75th latitude lines in the northern hemisphere. Local geologists have shown this to be subduction zone. This sea is bounded by three mountain ranges. It is a younger world, with active tectonic activity, primarily in the form of extensive volcanism. Sunsets are noted for their brilliant hues on Myrthe.

History & Background / Dossier

No information yet available.

World Starport

Myrthe has a Class A Starport, an excellent 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 other kinds of repair, and construction of both starships and non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

The Myrthe Highport is mostly run by Republic personnel, with a smattering of locals from the Technical University of Pierre.

World Technology Level

Myrthe possesses a Technology Level of TL–12 or TL-C in Hexadecimal Notation.

• Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Holovision, Personal Global Communications, and advanced Translators.
• Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Increasingly advanced fusion plants and advanced fuel cells.
• Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
  • Land, Water & Air: Personal G-Tubes and advanced gravcraft.
  • Space: Advanced interplanetary spacecraft (System Craft).
  • FTL: Jump Drive-3.

World Government

Myrthe is governed by a Feudal Technocracy. Society divides itself based on the technical requirements of the society. Each of these functions are granted as a fief to an individual or group. Leadership of these fiefs determines the head of the government.

World Law Level

Myrthe has a high law level with laws covering many areas of interactions of people, corporations, and the government. A few worlds with this law level may be Amber Zones. Any interaction with the judicial system requires an Advocate trained in the local legal system. Law enforcement is present almost everywhere, either as people or via technology. Legal proceedings can take weeks to months to resolve and involve a dozen or more people. All objects specifically manufactured as weapons are typically regulated or prohibited (outside private residences or visiting starships).

Slug rifles and shotguns are allowed to licensed ranching personnel, with appropriate registration and training requirements.

World Military

The Republic provides the military presence for Myrthe.

The urban centers maintain a small professional cadre for use in terrestrial emergencies.

World Economy

The early colonists brought with them genetically engineered cattle to take advantage of the grassy plains. These cattle remain a mainstay of Myrthic life.

Trade Data

Myrthic steak and meats are a recognized luxury brand.
