Stasmi Zanya

"Settled fairly recently by an expatriate minority from a backward section of the Imperium, Stasmi Zanya has grown to its current size in the last two centuries. The growth has been primarily due to the perfection of a chemical process for inventing and synthesizing organic solvents. Solvents for other compounds are also produced but not to as great an extent. The trade brings in considerable foreign exchange for Stasmi Zanya, and the process is considered a state secret. Even the private citizens are proud of the state's ability to solve chemical problems that other cultures and technologies find difficult. Security is very tight, but other companies are unlikely to try to crack it since the Stasmi Zanya charges for their services are very reasonable. Persistent rumors that the source of the chemical solvents is an organism have been officially denied."
