Human colonial dystopia versus indigenous eutopia. Exploitative colonization that treats the indigenous inhabitants as if they were animals, enslaving them, raping them, and destroying their way of life to ship timber back to Earth, which had been denuded of it. The indigenous inhabitants have a very complex, non-technological life deeply in tune with their planet. No government or overall authority with significant cultural difference among the communities. The women in each community, and the especially the headwoman, and the practical organizers of their communities\’ activities. Some of the men were active dreamers in touch with a different reality.
