Jump map from Travellermap.com

Sik is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial world lacking adequate development for its economy to become prosperous.

• 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 member of the Third Imperium in the Diamond-Prince Subsector of Ley Sector in the Domain of Gateway.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
