Dinom/Lanth (1811)

Dinom is a small airless world in a far orbit around the central star of the Dinom system. The planet's polar axis extends towards the central star and will do for the next 200 years. The nortern hemisphere is in constant light while the southern hemisphere is in constant night. The equatorial zone is a zone of constant twilight and moderate temperatures. Gravity is about 0.20 gravities. Dinom's star is a very large, very bright giant visible throughout the subsector and would not normally have planets. Dinom itself is a rogue planet originally a satellaite of the system's gas giant, and trails the giant in its orbit around the star.

Dinom's population of 23,000 is concentrated in three large cities (Rylan, Medianne, and Napan) which house the ore processing centres. Each city is governed by a board of directors answering to shareholders (who number about 10% per city) of the ore-processing centres. Token representation for non-shareholde5rs is also provided. The three cities send representatives to Rhylan for the World Board, which also has representation for the non-city dwellers. The Board is responsible for insterstellar relations, system defense, industrial production and Imperial contact.
