(References to Kaifeng)
Kaifeng is an agricultural world that exports its food surplus to feed a number nearby worlds, especially Sarna and Sakhalin.
Note: X and Y are coordinates (light years on XY plane) relative to Terra at (0, 0)
X: 72.5 Y: 72.5
The system features an Olympus-class recharging station, Jodo Shinsa, at the Zenith Jump Point.
Geography
The world has a gravity of 1.1g and one moon, Nochen. The atmosphere is breathable. Sixty percent of the land mass are covered with dense, heavy jungle; the other fourty percent is among the most productive agriculatural land in the Inner Sphere. The main export product is rice, which alone was reported to amount to four hundred million metric tons in 3058.
Political Structure
There are three large districts of colonized/cultivated area, each administered by a single large city: Franklin in the southern hemisphere, Beijing and Tarrahouse in the northern. Tarrahouse sits next to the large Lake Ch'u Yuan and the large Jinxiang river. The latter cuts through the Shé Shan Hills in a fairly straignt east-westerly line three kilometers upriver from Tarrahouse. A road runs alongside the river, but the bulk transport is by river barges.
The planet's capital (and largest city), Mahabodhi, is situated outside the Beijing district and has the only operable full-service spaceport on the planet. It is also the primary garrison center.
Food from all districts is brought to the respective administrative centers and shipped to Mahabodhi from there to be moved off-world.
Kaifeng culture has strong chinese roots, having been held by the Capellan Confederation from the mid-24th century to the Fourth Succession War that ended in 3030.
