Mica Majority 3058 Update

Today, the Mican worlds are home to a small number of self-sufficient miners. The total population of all three worlds is less than half a million. Most of their food is grown within the life-support domes of the Mican worlds, and other goods are supplied by small trading vessels en route to other, larger Periphery realms. The Mican government exerts very little authority over the Majority residents, who enforce their own brand of frontier justice.

In recent years, the Mican worlds have also become a destination for small numbers of wealthy, thrill-seeking Inner Sphere eccentrics who wish to temporarily substitute the hardships of the Mican mining life for the luxuries of civilization. A tiny industry has sprung up to arrange lodging, supplies, and any other assistance required for these tourists to enjoy (and survive) their stay in the Mica Majority.

Military

The Mican military consists of a small mercenary unit, Larsen's Loners, which once formed part of Bullard's Armored Cavalry. Though all Mican citizens contribute a token tax to pay the mercenary unit, the Majority's tour operators contribute most of the unit's pay. The small unit primarily serves to deter pirate attacks against the Mican planets, and it rotates between garrison facilities located on each of the major Mican worlds.
