Graceland was settled during the early expansion of the Terran Sphere. The three major continents maintain a lush temperate zone rain forest and wide savannahs. Multiple rivers run through land the original settlers decided to name the world Graceland, after a legendary place in Terra’s past.
After the collapse of the Terran Sphere, Graceland went through several boom bust cycles. This resulted in regions of Graceland where the people never truly recovered from the cycles and live at a -2 tech level and eschew any tech higher than -1. These backwoods types are dangerous for the unwary.
Overall, each continent, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Alabama, each have their own local governments. Alabama was the first settled continent and is home to the first city and capital of the Confederate States of Alabama, Memphis.
With the connection to the Glory Cluster, Graceland is the other major player in the cluster, sometimes at odds with the Crimson Fold.

Pacifica is a warm Neptune. There is no solid land, and the core of this world is a small, moon sized rocky core surrounded by super ice, hot enough to melt metal. The ocean that wraps this world is thousands of miles deep.
Life appeared here and adapted vigorously to this massive biome. There are deep currents on this world that keep nutrients flowing to the surface, incredibly hot plumes of water that rise and foster rich regions of life. The colony that settled here, built massive floating cities/processing plants. Terran life forms had no chance against the local fauna, except for one branch of Mollusks: Cephalopods thrive here and use the floating city islands and the native sargasso mats to host their eggs.
The people of Pacifica went through two boom/bust cycles and survived long enough to rebuild their space capabilities and have a healthy asteroid mining industry, feeding their need for metals and other minerals. There is no world government, instead each city island with it’s associated deep water bloom, are independent states. They can and do work together, but they also compete with each other for offworld goods. Trade is strong here with the offworlders.
