Roda 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.
- This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below technology standards for Charted Space.
- It is a subject world of the Korsumug Empire located in the Shimmerskip Subsector of Mavuzog Sector.
- About 10% of the population is composed of Chirpers.
- About 70% of the population is composed of baseline humans.
- About 20% of the population is composed of Jaibok.
