BACKGROUND:
Desolia is a barren planet, with no agriculture or minerals to offer. What it does have is a huge industrial base. This has sprung up for two reasons. Firstly, because most planets have planning restrictions, and the rest have little room left for development. The vast quantities of free space on Desolia were seen as an advantage, and when the confederation decided to subsidise any companies moving to Desolia it became a haven of activity. It is now a hub of commerce with huge quantities of raw materials being brought to the planet, and equally large amounts of finished goods leaving for destinations around the confederation.
