Montana was a planet in the Talbott Cluster, the sole inhabitable world of the Montana System.
The capital of Montana was the city of Brewster.
History[]
The planet was originally colonized by humans who built a kind of "Cowboy" society with a strong moral code. (SI1)
Economy[]
Montana was relatively prosperous for a Verge star nation, and had good social mobility. It was known for its cattle ranching, and was a major exporter of beef and leather, which led to a favorable trade balance[1]. It also had self-sufficiency in consumer goods, although heavy industrial imports (including all spacecraft) were required. (SI1ch.39)
