Aknam is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

• 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 dangerous world is designated an Amber Zone with an environment, laws, customs, life forms, or other conditions make it dangerous to visitors.
• It is a member of the Third Imperium in the Welling Subsector of Lishun Sector in the Domain of Antares.
• This world has a nearby Imperial Naval Base, capable of handling warships.
• It also contains an Imperial Scout Base, capable of handling IISS starships and personnel.
