 The long years of rule by Vilani-like bureaus has resulted in a people willing to put the society above the individual. The strict rules and distant administration have also made them passive and easy to rule.

		+
		+	The Tlemcen intermediary trade route connects Hiver worlds to the Reach, Old Worlds, Katowice Conquest, Syzlin Republic, Grand Duchy of Keldarin, Glimmerdrift Federation, Grand Duchy of Stoner, Shukikar League and the Third Imperium.
		+
		+	The most important local lines are the Tindouf-Tlemcen-Kouvola-Oconee-Kheri and the Tindouf-Tlemcen-Kouvola-Oconee-Zisteffle-T'Kaim-Olduvai-Rion. Trade on the former averages 100k dtons and 2k passangers per week, and the latter 30k dtons and 600 passangers per week.
		+
		+	Because of the strict limits on off-world visitors on Tlemcen, most of the passing ships are served on the Tlemcen Highport.

		+
		+	The culture of Tlemcen is old (it was colonized by a group of Solomani and Vilani escaping the sphere of the Second Imperium), and has turned inward towards a spiritual path. There is little innovation and the culture is not very empirical. The people trust their intuition and mystical experiences rather than science or logic.
		+
		+	The age of Tlemcen society has made it somewhat slow to change and prone to plan things in a decadal scale.

-Tlemcen is a police state. It is considered High Law by Imperial standards. Laws are numerous and complex. The individual exists to serve the state. Many offenses carry the death penalty, and trials are controlled by the Administration. Taxation is crushing, taking most of an ordinary citizen’s income. Censorship is common, and private ownership of any information technology is forbidden. All goods are controlled. Anyone entering world is subject to physical search. The starport limit is protected by a double fence, lethal traps and patrols authorized to use deadly force.
