Zydanar is a poor, nonindustrial world.

  • 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.
  • This world has few prospects for economic development.
  • It is a member of the Zydarian Codominium in the Spinward Drift Subsector of Beyond Sector.
  • This world was once known as Danaria.

History & Background (Dossier)[edit]

Following the social reorganization of the Great Realignment on Zydar, formerly Tirost, the Duality Prophet Zydar spread his rule to neighbouring systems. The establishment of the Star Legion of the Codominium in 962 was followed by its occupation and 'voluntary' conversion of Danaria, which was renamed Zydanar.

World Starport[edit]

Zydanar 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.

Population[edit]

500,000 Humans
