System Information[edit]
Star: (F) Green, Brown Dwarf
- Gehenna Class 5, Sub-Terran (G5, R1, A5, P5, H5)
- Kari Class 1, Sub-Terran (G2, R1, A2, P4, H3)
Civilization[edit]
Kari posses a number of challenges to its inhabitants. First, it is hot enough to melt lead on the planets surface.
the planets surface however is completely covered in a boiling sea. The "water" has a unique molecular structure that prevents it from breaking apart due to the intense heat, but is not safe for human consumption in the least. At least not before an intensive modification process.
the pressure on the surface is extraordinary dense, so much that humans would find it deadly to try and breath with out proper equipment.
the only reason this planet was even colonized in the first place is because of the cellular life that exists here.
what settlements that do exists are either insulated platforms on the surface that rise above the boiling seas, or floating cities that hover high in the planet's upper atmosphere where it is both cooler and less dense. Celt is one of the Stellar Nations
People and Culture[edit]
Humans are the only inhabitants of Celt. The culture has been greatly affected by continuous civil war that has been waged since 2248. Because of the war, politics are very important to the people of Celt and loyalty to a particular party is quite strong. Infrastructure does exist to some extent in most places, basic needs are mostly provided for, schools, and even universities are also present.
History[edit]
Celt was colonized in 2208 as part of a joint operation between Sol, Halo, Pharaoh, and I.C.S.. In 2212, Celt was invaded and occupied by the Eberian Empire. This event started the Stellar War. At the conclusion of the war Celt was liberated, but the political system that had been established in the four years before the war had been destroyed. After the liberation a conflict started between those who wanted to return to the system of government that had existed before, a Representative Republic, and those who want to establish a new form of government based on the underground network that existed during the war and provides more freedom to the individual city states of the planet. The tension between the Republicans and Confederates came to the attention of the newly formed Galactic Senate. Diplomats from the Alliance came to Celt hoping to defuse the conflict. What actually happened was the formation of a third power that wanted a close relationship with the Galactic Alliance. The conflict was then between Republicans, Confederates, and the Alliance Party.
Political tension at this time was so intense that in 2240 all out war broke out. The three way war lasted to a lesser or great extent for the next seventy years, with no side being able to stabilize the situation. That changed in 2308 when the Republic Party was able to establish a comfortable advantage. In 2313 The Republicans started receiving aid from Eberon. The Republicans were able to gain the upper hand and subdue the other sides rather quickly.
The Republican Party had little interest in joining the Galactic Senate.
