Tukkav architecture is thick-walled and low to the ground, built to withstand the cold and snowy winters of Uycheon - the shape of the buildings are actually vaguely reminiscent of the domed, fur-lined tents that historic Tukkav tribespeople used. Many of their factories and shipyards (which are owned and operated by private conglomerations) are coastal and located near the equator, both for the increased solar and hydro power output, and for the significant gravity assist of the planet's spin. A particularly large shipyard owned by the [[Thill Conglomerate]] is a center of commerce for the Tukkav, and a significant settlement has sprung up around it. | Tukkav architecture is thick-walled and low to the ground, built to withstand the cold and snowy winters of Uycheon - the shape of the buildings are actually vaguely reminiscent of the domed, fur-lined tents that historic Tukkav tribespeople used.

Things are beginning to change, however. The [[Tosmar Hunting Preserve]] has introduced breeding programs for rare wildlife, and landscape conservation to vast swathes of the tundra, meaning that less inhabited areas of the planet are seeing more use and there is a burgeoning economy developing around hunting tourism in the area.
