Phoummathep is an agricultural world with the potential to become an industrial power.

  • 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.
  • As a preindustrial world, this planet cannot yet manufacture enough high-technology resources to support a modern, star-faring society. Having to import many manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
  • This is a "Puzzle" world designated as an Amber Zone. Caution is advised since the world has an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions that are not well understood and might be a danger to a visitor.
  • This world-system has a Naval Base, usually associated with military starships, which may be located on or off-world.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Orichalc Subsector of Alpha Crucis Sector.
