Befta is a poor, nonindustrial world.
- 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.
- This world has few prospects for economic development.
- It is a member of the Zhodani Consulate in the Izellensjdash Subsector of Yiklerzdanzh Sector.
- This is a hot world, with a climate of high temperatures.
- This is a "high technology" world with technology achievements at, near, or over technology standards for Charted Space.
- It is a member of the Yiklerzdanzh Main.
Description (Astrography & Planetology)
