0209 Teal C 155343-B Gas Giant
Starport Type C - A routine quality installation, Teal starport has reasonable repair facilities but no fuel refinery or shipyards.
Planetary Size 1 - Approximately 1,000 miles in diameter, Teal is a tiny rock; however, its unusual abundance of heavy metals and minerals meant gravity is almost .5G.
Atmosphere Type 5 - Standard atmosphere, though a bit thin, natives are perfectly adapted to outdoor living on Teal. Visitors are advised to avoid strenuous exertion or wear compressor masks until acclimatised.
Hydrographic Percentage 5 - Fully 50% of the world's surface is covered in water, most of which is located in a single large ocean in the southern hemisphere.
Population Size 3 - Approximately 8,000 people live on Teal.
Government Type 4 - As a representative democracy, executive power is vested in the Council of Teal.
Law Level 3 - Heavy military weapons are prohibited, but almost everything else is fair game. The citizens tend not to go about heavily armed, although most have respectable armouries in their homes.
Technological Index B (11) - Although Teal is hardly a manufacturing centre, the prevailing culture of mend-and-make-do means that a lot of well-kept technology is in evidence wherever one goes. Pubic transport is not a viable option with such a small population, so gravitic vehicles are the predominant means of travel.
Notes - Teal was once a much more populous world - or system, to be accurate. The unusual arrangement of the Teal-Vandor Confederation is that both worlds periodically engage in a highly ritualised duel of champions on the neutral joint colony world 0309 Xenon, with the winning side gaining a certain amount of territory on the other planetary bodies within both systems. The combat has turned into a form of mass entertainment / admonition with the aid of a device which lets viewers experience in full whatever their champion feels. Teal has been having a run of bad luck in the competition, and it has little territory left off-planet. Conspiracy theories abound, of course, but nothing has ever been proven.
