The current forty thousand belters of Khollok are not the original inhabitants of this belt. The original colony formed during the late Ramshackle Empire died off over a thousand years ago. In 810, the world of Nisaga re-established a colony in the Khollok belt, so that mined materials could be transported back to Nisaga aboard Jump-3 ore carrier vessels developed on the TL12 world of Khuvoeru. While the current colony has recovered many of the facilities left behind by the original settlers, belters still occasionally recover a previously undiscovered facility on isolated planetoids. These sites often provoke the interest of archaeologists interested in First and Second Imperial history.

Zowie is a nonindustrial world, that requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society.

  • In a technological universe, societies without industrial capability generally suffer as nearly all manufactured and high tech goods must be brought in at significant cost.
  • 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.
  • It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Zowie Subsector of Zowie Sector.
