Fiction:The Core Federation/Planets

"I find myself leader of a myriad of planets, and I can say that the position is daunting."

"Millions, Your Honor, not a myriad."

"Does it matter? Myriads or millions, I find that they are too many to count. Perhaps we should count them by galaxies instead."

- High Viceroy Vy'rii and Crown Minister Ka'stella Raia

The Federation of the Core Worlds owns millions of planets, yet most have never nor will ever figure in intergalactic history. Ravenrii worlds are commonly lush with vegetation and have white beaches and swirling turquoise-colored seas, caused by minerals in the planets' geological layers. All Ravenrii worlds have light atmospheres and are within the "T3" class, as they are the species' favoured living conditions. Despite their love of open, grassy worlds, some of the species' planets have been completely covered by sprawling cities, converting them into ecumenopoleis. In addition, most of the CorFed's worlds have a cold core, usually riddled with moving plasma which moves around their planets' rock layers. To meet these specific conditions, most Ravenrii worlds are "terraformed" and moved around in their systems to wherever they might want them placed, and usually fitted with massive orbital mirrors to put them into a perpetual state of daylight.

The following is a list of the Core Federation's most relevant worlds in the intergalactic community.

Concentron
Main Article: Planet:Concentron Vice-capital of the Federation, Concentron is a sprawling and flourishing world-city, nicknamed the World of Golden Light. The planet is also the Ravenrii's most populated, with over 12 trillion official residents. Concentron is located at the meeting-place of six different galactic trade hyperroutes and is found in the midst of the Core Worlds, making it by far one of the richest planets in the CorFed and the galaxy. Concentron has been populated of billions of years, once being a desolate and unpopulated planet in the capital system of the Grox Empire. When the Ravenrii took control of the Core Worlds, where the Empire was located, they made Concentron vice-capital and terraformed it into a typical Ravenrii world. However, by the end of the Great War of Xanthrus, the entire planet had been urbanized into a bustling metropolis, and weather and other planetary traits became dwarfed by the new metropolis, transforming Concentron's green fields into mountains of golden glass and steel. The planet is home to the University of Concentron, famous for having foreign staff, and the High Court of Concentron, the second chamber of the High Court of the Core.

Kuron Prime
Like Concentron, the city-planet of Kuron Prime is one of the Ravenrii's ecumenopoleis, of which there are approximately two dozen. However, unlike Concentron, Kuros is a chaotic, hectic ecumenopolis in the Core Worolds sector of the galaxy, in the middle of a trade hypperroute. The plant was once filled with lush fields and valleys, but was urbnized due to massive immigration in the Second Age.The planet is one massive, golden city, the second most-populated planet in the Ravenrii's dominions. However, it has a much thicker atmosphere than most Ravenrii worlds, with cloud layers similar to those of the Earth. The planet, like Concentron, is a hub of power, and houses the original headquarters of a private shipbuilder, Grotta Corporation, as well as being an important hub for the InterGalactic Bank of the Core. however, it has little political influence, represented by Delegate Hons Cathris in the High Court at Concentron. It is an important Ravenrii planet and host to large, yet clean, industrial sectors, one of the rarest sights within the Core Federation, as most of its industry is carried out in massive, orbiting shipyards.

Kanto
Another of the Ravenrii's golden planet-cities, Core World Kanto is set between Centrus and Concentron, and is one of the original capital of the Seven Minor Empires that existed before the creation of the CorFed itself. It is very technologically advanced and, in contrast to Coros Prime, one of heh most developed ecumenopoleis in the galaxy, third only to Kuron Prime and Concentron itself. Its skyscrapers are so tall that they surpassed the planet's mesosphere. The ground was completely out of sigght because of the continued building of builds upon bildings, leaving vast crevasses in ebtween through which you could "fall for hours before you hit the floor", which was miles below. The city, Candia City, is teh source of one of Centrus's lakes, where its chamber of the High Court is housed. The planet is famous for its exlusive clubs and social venues, some of the most expensive in the galaxy. Kanto was completely dspared from violence during the Riots of Centrus and other conflicts, which made stability its primary trait.

Coros Prime
Core World Coros Prime is one of the least built-upon ecumenopoleis of teh Federation, as its surface is till mostly flat and its skyscrapers are found in clusters the size of coutries throughout the planet. It was one of the original capitals of the Seven Minor Empires, located in the inner Core Worlds sector. The planet is currently experiencing a massive growth spurt, though it has been an ecumenopolis for millions of years. It is a center of trade and, unlike some other Core Worlds-politics, as many of the Federation's politicans are credited to have Coros Prime as their homeworld, including galactic legend  Coros Carcus Airdone, whose first name was, as Ravenrii culture dictates, that of his planet. The planet is driven by galactic economics and politics, having little to no industrial or manufacturing sectors.

Massive maglev superlanes course throughout the whole planet, who despite being completely orbanized has a visible surface, albeit one covered by smooth permacrete. The world has, like Kuron Prime, a somewhat denser atmosphere that permits the formation of massive clouds, which sometimes rage throughout the city. Vast orbital mirrors make day perpetual on-planet, in a similar situation to otehr ecumenopoleis where the mile-high skyscrapers would normally block out the much-loved sunlight.

Galeanna
Set in the outer Core Worlds sector of the galaxy, Core World Galeanna is one of the most beautiful ecumenopoleis in the Federation, surrounded by a rare nebula called the "Violet Ghost nebula". The nebula is one of the most defining traits of the planet, which glitters above one of the Federation's most prized planets, nicknamed "The Golden Pearl". Galeanna is a private, yet massively populated and leisurely ecumenopolis, contrasting with the hectic lifestyle led in other city-planets like Concentron or Coros prime. The world receives much tourism and is an important Ravenrii planet, being an important banking and economic hub, which manifests itself in its exlusive residential towers that rival those of any other planet in the Core Federation and are home to teh highest celebrities and politicans in the galaxy.

Centrus
Main Article:Planet:Centrus Planet Centrus is the most important, if not influential, planety in the entire Core Federation. It is a sunny, lush planet with rolling hills and sandy beaches, half of its surface covered with water. It is highly advanced and settled, covered with extensive silver cities builtin the Sylvean style. Seat of government and capital of the Federation, Centrus has been populated for billiosn of years; it was first the capital of the most important Minor Empire, the Kingdom of Centrus. It has a long history, ranging from conflicts in teh second age like the Royal revolution and the Riots of Centrus to the installment of new regimes and the creation of just governments. It is mostly covered with wide-open, unspoiled fields and swirling turqoise oceans, with a light atmosphere and little cloud covers. The planet is protected from exploitation by laws passed in teh First Age by the High Court of teh Core, which have prevented the world from growing into an ecumenopolis like Concentron. Its open and clean cities house billions of Ravenrii, though, most of whom live underwater. centrus is orbited by 15 vast mirrors like those of other Ravenrii planets, which make it stay ina perpetual state of day. The planet is the first from its sun, Capitalis, a position it was moved to in ancient times.

Cala
The ocean-world of Cala is actually a thriving industrial and manufacturing planet, its seabeds covered by massive production plants and underwater cities for the populace. In addition, it has some of the most important shipyards in the galaxy that form a complete halo around the planets. The shipyards, owned by CoreFleet, are a major source of ship production for the Federation's Grand Army.

The ocean-world is very heavily defended and isolated, set in the mid-rim territories of the Federation. Due to its position near the Core Worlds, it is considered a militarily strategic world along with its production facilities.

Kendron
Main Article:Planet:Kendron

A rich planet in the Core World sector of Xanthrus Spiral, Core World Kendron is a politically active and important planet, home to the Federation's current High Viceroy, kendron Sviadarnus Vy'rii. it is a lush green world, rising in economic and diplomatic status. It was the galactic headquarters of the Intergalactic Republic while the organization was active, and houses one of the many galactic embassies of the Universal Alliance of Nations. It is a financial and administrative center, with a largely active population and aunique trait; it is one of the very few remaining planets the universe that still preserve teh Ravenrii's oldest Architecture, Archlithic. The planet was the site of the drafting of the Treaty of Kendron.

Korytaze
Core World Korytaze, also called Caritas, is a highly developed planet, displaying prime examples of Ravenrii society. It is a beautiful and lush world, though it is not widely populated and its seas and lands almost untouched. The capital, however, called Yrven City, covers the entire north pole of the planet. despite its low population, Korytaze is a popular world resort, with much of its exports and presence coming from the products of tourism. It is a warm and sunny planet, with light distributed around to create perpetual day by its 12 orbital mirrors. However, Korytaze is an unusual example of a Core World; it is mostly unexploited, despite having abundant natural and economic resources. Set in the Core Worlds sector, relatively close to the city-planet of Galeanna, Korytaze is still an important vote in the High Court.
