The Zolfo system is the location of at least one habitable world or construct, Zolfo IV - usually referred to simply as "Zolfo". As as at 3145 was located in the Woodbine Operational Area of the Periphery March within the Federated Suns.[2][3]

System Description

The Zolfo system is located close to the Crofton and Yamoussoukra systems [2][3] orbiting a class F5V primary.[1]

System History

The Zolfo system was colonised at some point prior to the end of the Age of War.[4][5]

Zolfo IV

Template:InfoBoxPlanetStandard Zolfo IV was the fourth planet in the Zolfo system.[1]

Planetary History

Zolfo was a Skid Row world for a long time. An agrarian world that was barely able to feed its population, Zolfo's residents had no hope of higher education or a better quality of life. In 3022 that all changed. As part of Hanse Davion's pressure to re-examine Outback worlds for economic opportunities, a survey team from BP Interstellar (a large steel and petroleum processing firm) visited Zolfo. The team found large amounts of coal, petroleum, and related products in the planet's mountain ranges. BP Interstellar began buying up land on Zolfo, and approximately thirty other firms followed suit.[1]

Duchess Wilzon reinvested in her world by building trade schools and colleges and hiring teachers and skilled labor to assist the population. Zolfo serves as an example of the wisdom of Hanse's policy of expansion and investment in the Outback.[1]
