History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

In 788, a Zhodani-inspired insurrection took place in the Union of Garth, a region originally settled by Protectorate colonists. This rebellion resulted in the formation of the Four Worlds, a state which has maintained pro-Zhodani sympathies since gaining its independence from Garth.

World Starport (St)[edit]

Hearth has a Class B Starport, a good quality installation which includes all the expected amenities including refined fuel for starships, brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing annual maintenance, overhauls and most kinds of repair, and construction of non-starships. Most ports of this classification have both a Highport and a Downport.

Government[edit]

The Four Worlds are governed by an impersonal bureaucracy headquartered on Uldor. Most of the population is satisfied with this arrangement and have no qualms about their friendship with the Zhodani.
