Sensors show no signs of other life in the system of 7 planets. The others are either gas or inert rock. The large world you're approach is warm, but not unbearably so, and with variation. It is indeed an ocean world, with many islands throughout, but none large. It also appears to have a number of artificial floating islands to help support the hundreds of millions of inhabitants on the planet. Verity is able to verify that it has post tech levels of technology, including a number ships in orbit. 

There are a number of different types of settlements on Wuey. It has hundreds of millions of inhabitants, but little land. However, it has a rich and bountiful ocean. The land is preserved for farming and natural use as much as possible, so cities tend to be built under ground, or partially submerged in the water, so those cities do exist.This was once, largely a vacation planet, with it's endless beaches and warm weather. That largely broke down post-Scream. It's fairly isolated, so have fallen back into supporting themselves. The world teams with ocean delicacies and grows a substantial amount of crops on the their limited land masses. There is a chance you could export food from here to elsewhere, if you have a market for it. They avoid giving away weaknesses, but it seems they lack in mineral resources and also are getting low on their manufacturing and technology for much of their equipment. They haven't slipped back at this point, but that's certainly a possibility in the future.

Planetary Government has patrol ships as standard. Weapons are regulated on the planet, especially in the government sector here. Firearms (or energy weapons) are forbidden for citizens and yourselves.Even a combat knife is technically forbidden, though you can hide things away if you wish. This city, or set of interconnected cities, is the largest on the planet and the planetary government.


The rebels are the descendants of an original pastoral colony who became, and remain, an underclass in society. They were forced to become the waitstaff, maintenance workers, etc. for the entrepreneurs who turned the planet into a resort planet. It wasn't direct force so much as gentrification which pushed prices up and pushed the locals to desperation to survive. It continues to this day, despite the planet reverting to more of a pastoral planet post-scream that a small group of elites control the wealth, the government, and most of the resources, while the majority are a worker underclass that supports them. It isn't formalized anywhere, but does appear to be a defaco standard on the planet.

There's been a pretty large uprising in recent decades that has liberated much of the planet to the far side from here. With numbers and a lack of incoming technology from outside, it's given them a chance to take back lands and declare their own government. The majority of the planet still goes on under the united government who has access to space, and will definitely gain ascendancy as they establish trade agreements and gain access to outside resources. Your additional research shows that everyone who gains financially from business ownership is part of the smaller ruling class, though even there only a minority of that class has access to real wealth and power.
