Plenty of cosmopolitan hi-tech, hi-pop centers very close to plenty of "Triple Lows"; low pop, low tech, and low law.
yeah, on first starting this I presumed a very settled situation here, but there's a whole lotta space here for referees and pc's. what I'm thinking though is not a thorough setting development - don't have time anyway - but a general setting description to give referees material for their own ideas.
heh. what'll really be a lot of fun is udap is balkanized. not my world to develop but the results - national/corporate espionage and cultural differences - will be readily on display on gudak.
really don't like the very low pop / very high tech worlds though. imtu I'd cut the tech to match the pop, but I'm just going by travellermap ....

actually gudak would be the second largest tax source in the subsector. but the subsector duke already lives on a 9F world, so there's not much gudak could contribute that would make a significant difference. gudak might be more valuable as a source of info on the status of economic activity in the shallows sector, since according to wiki.traveller all sorts of retirees wind up on udap.
