Bulawayo 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.
• It is a member of the Federation of Alsas in the Alsas Subsector of Far Frontiers Sector.

• It is a direct colony of Afellahlah.

History & Background (Dossier)

World Starport (St)

Bulawayo has a Class D Starport, a poor quality installation which has few of the expected amenities. There is unrefined fuel for starships and a limited variety of ship provisions. There is no shipyard of any kind, but there may be parts and technical support for doing minor services and repair. Ports of this classification generally consist of only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

Population

700,000

Military

As with most member planets of the Federation of Alsas, this world leaves the job of Federation defence to the armed forces of Afellahlah, thereby avoiding the expense of equipping itself but allowing the Afellahlah government a lot of leeway in deciding Federation policy.
