Jiangyin is a small planet suitable for cattle
ranching and foresting and little else. Jiangyin is
dotted with small towns, where folk generally go
about their business without much interference
from the outside. Those who do come here from
off-world usually have goods to sell to the ranchers
and foresters.
Since the planet really has nothing of value, it is
ignored by the Alliance, which doesn’t even bother
to patrol it. Jiangyin has no central government.
Each town or village is left to govern itself. It is
one of the most primitive and backward planets, its
people in such desperate need that they are forced to
steal what they can’t acquire by lawful means—such
as doctors to treat their sick.
The people of Jiangyin are a simple lot, especially
those who live apart from what little civilization
there is. These “hill folk” are superstitious and
mostly uneducated, easy prey for unscrupulous
leaders. A strong show of force is usually enough to
intimidate them.
