Acadie is an agricultural, nonindustrial, pre-rich world with a growing agro-economy, but still lacks an adequate population to expand its economy to a rich status.

  • 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.
  • This world has promising economic future although it needs to recruit a larger labor force in order to achieve the desired prosperity.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Old Islands Subsector of Reft Sector.

Astrography and Planetology

Acadie is a colony of Amondiage, and is part of the Amondiage Cluster. The only relatively convenient route which is able to access this very remote cluster passes through Riftspan Station from the rimward-trailward direction out of Moibin Subsector or Limon Subsector.

History

Acadie was colonized from Amondiage during the initial sub-light expansion of the Islands Cluster. It is the main colony of Amondiage, and serves as a source of raw materials. [2]

World Starport

Acadie has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which includes amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Government

Its Colonial Director answers to the Director on Amondiage, and is expected to run the colony in the best interests of Amondiage rather than Acadie. Directorship of Acadie is one of the most common routes to overall Directorship of Amondiage, so there is a strong incentive to pursue the agenda dictated by the central authority.
