History & Background (Dossier)

The Biumvirate government is organized into two separate, but equal bodies: the Civilitas and the Militas. All areas dealing with planetary affairs, population and economics are controlled by the Civilitas, while matters of interplanetary defense, space regulation, and interstellar diplomacy are dealt with by the Militas.

World Starport

Forbus 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.
