Planet:Matrukoris

"Forget any other place. This is a true paradise. Not only is it perfect for all races in the Enlightenment Alliance, but it also is invaluable to our other colonies. Right now, the goods it trades are needed else where, and power from the many sectors' power Plants can transfer energy to another planet with little cost to Matrukoris."

- Senator Domue

Metrukoris Great City-Village or The City of the Great Spirit, the former Capitol of the Enlightened Ones, where they created many life-forms. It was rebuild by the Enlightened One Remnant, the UFG, WAoS and the Brotherhood of Spode/UNoS, and now serves as the capital of the Unified Alliance of Enlightenment, being shared between it's member races.

Early history
Matrukoris was the pinnacle of the Enlightened Ones' Empire, and was maintained as the capital. Here, every race gathered, and traded with each other. At the peek of it's power, Matrukoris could support trillions, and transfer energy to other planets, with little cost to itself. It's various Sectors and Sub-sectors could create all sorts of tools, armor pieces, and bits of energy for the entire station.

It remained their capital, being the most heavily guarded station and having the most energy. In it's laboratories, it produced most of the EO's creations, which where seeded on chosen planets, even in other galaxies, but mostly Mirus and Milky Way.

Alpha War
During the Meeno Grox's invasion of their galaxy, the Eo fought hard to keep the invaders away from their Crown Jewel. In a startling blow, Terikalinra posed as the city governor and tried to sieze control of the Enlightened Ones, but was thrown out.

After that, the Leviathan Hive-mind was found, struggling to survive, and where taken in. A group of Meeno was also taken, and taught the virtues of the Eo's. Both pledged their forces to the EO's, and fought on their side against the Meeno. The Meeno appeared to be beat.

However, some did not just the rescuer of the Alpha and Leviathan, and tried to kill him. The Alpha tried to save him but where too late. They rebelled and joined the Meeno in their path of conquest, and Matrukoris was locked in a pocket dimension, as Meeno turned the EO's into the The Kashriinox.

After the EO's launched an EMP, and their drones began reseeding the galaxy with the Grox's defeat, things returned to normal, and Matrukoris returned to this universe.

Reconstruction
Millennia later, the station was found by the Federation, and, using the Togunda, began to rebuild the city. Later on, the Waptoria Alliance and the two mayor Spodist Empires joined in the reconstruction of the city. However, things would really receive a boost when the Enlightened Ones returned during the Enlightenment War. With their aid and knowledge of the station, it was running up again in no time.

As Capitol
When the said empires united in the Unified Alliance of Enlightenment, they chose Matrukoris to be the capital of the entire Alliance. The UAE's council, the Alliance's Light, has their seat here.

Citizens
Most of the races within the UAE call Matrukoris home. Due to the fact that each sector has a different environment, every species in the Alliance has a sector with resembles their original home. Most races tend to live in the more gentle sectors of Water, Stone, Earth and Air.This is not always true however: for example, Lavantufts live almost exclusively in the sector of Fire, with the only other sector they can be found in being that of Stone. The species of the Waptoria live everywhere due to their environmental resistance, but can mainly be found in the Sector of Jungle, were they make up most of the population, followed by the sectors of Air, Water and Ice. The races of the Mirusian Church of Spode, plus the Togunda and the Ugandalorians live everywhere due to their Elemental resistance.

Sectors
The Sectors are massive cities, big enough to be a continent, but make up 1 land mass. Each Sector leads to the central City, the Capital, the Cornucopia. Cornucopia's towers and spires can be seen for miles away, and are visible in space. The other sectors, those listed that currently operate at a acceptable level, also sport massive spires, but none as big as the Cornucopia.

There is a Sector for every element in nature that was important to the Enlightened Ones, and their creations.

The Cornucopia

 * Largest Building - The Royal Palace
 * Purpose - Living area for most inhabitants, Administration of the Entire station
 * Borders - All

The Cornucopia, also known as Sector 8530, is the Central province and city within the Planet, and all Sectors meet at the Cornucopia. It was built into a waterfall, and can be seen for miles around the station. The sector itself resembles a lush parkland inside a valley, with the white, ancient-looking houses placed on the upper side of the valley's hillsides. The ground of the Cornucopia is filled with trees, bushes, lakes and natural fountains. Catwalks wind between them, leading to platforms on the meadow-filled lower hillsides. On these platforms, not only the stairs leading to the entrances of the houses can be found, but shops and even tribal markets as well.

Formerly used by the Enlightened Ones' Matriarch and her council of Elder Sages, the Royal Palace is the pinnacle of all buildings of Matrukoris, and housed most of the ruling council. Inside where some of the best works of art, preserved for thousands of years, and, after one enters through the Main Gates, can find 2 Statues of the 2 Gods of the Enlightened Ones, one of Night and Day, and the walls are covered in ruins. The palace has been restored to it's former glory, and is now used as the place were the Alliance's Light meet. The Alliance's Light rule the sectors, and indeed, the whole alliance from here.

Used for public gathering was the Great Arena, used when the Matriarch wanted to make special announcements, or in special sporting events, which the whole planet gathered to watch. The Arena was massive enough, and wide enough to house the Population, though, like today, only those with Passes could get in.

The Cornucopia was the first rebuilt, and is the most populated sector. The inhabitants are usually the most influential and most powerful of the population living on the station.

Ga-8532 is the most tranquil place in the entire planet. Built on top of many winding rivers and bays, the docks used not only allow for boats and starships to dock, but also allow for some minor ship production.

The Sector's main purpose is scientific research, and to teach students from across the city, making it a major education point. From across the Federation, Scientists from all over gather to research various important topics.

The city is not only covered in Laboratories and Schools, but also in aqueducts and many other great structures. The city has the finest buildings of all the planet, and many of it's inhabitants live in well off communities.

The quietest sector, Ko-8533, is a cold, but peaceful place, inhabited by scholars and trackers. The place is mostly wild, with villagers living in huts in the mountains, or in Knowledge towers in the plains. Jobs are hunting and tracking wild animals, or, for higher ranking Togunda (and others), to work first as a Scholar attendant, then make your to Scholar.

Scholars watch the stars, hoping to gain insight from what has transpired, and what will occur. As such, they also read ancient texts from ancient races of old.

The Crystal knowledge towers are living databases, the crystal holding vast knowledge that computers could not. Produced below them are knowledge crystals, used to grow new towers, incase one is destroyed by some occurrence.

Po-8536 may seem like a desert, but it's wide open plans support many life-forms, and it's fields also are home to the sculpture makers. The large fields support small tents, so construction concentrates on building various statues and furniture pieces for the rest of the city.

The Sector is mostly desert, where the villages often built in mountain passes. Despite this, the area is very temperate, and supports a wide variety of life. The Togunda mostly avoid the animals, as they have many powerful, and dangerous abilities.

The place supports a wide range of military bases, with it's wide open spaces. However, the building of statues is paramount in Ugandalorian, Togunda, and many other members. Statues honor the living for their achievements, and the dead for their sacrifice. Carvers are always at work, working up to please they who have gone before.

Sector Ta-8540 is one of the noisiest places in the entire station. The city is dominated by furnaces, the Great Furnace being the main one. Gases are constantly pumped out, as the workers build weapons, armors, and tool to help other the sectors. It was the the second rebuilt, as it's tool where needed to help rebuild the other sectors.

The center is, of course, the Great Furnace, through which everything depended on. The busiest and most active furnace, it's yards are always at work. Unlike most, where the transport Hub-station is right in the center of the Sector, the Transport Hub is placed elsewhere, though still close to the epicenter, so the Furnace can dominate the center.

Transported everywhere are molten vats, sent to the furnaces to be cooled so they can be harnessed for metal working and forgery. The largest pool is the Reclamation yards, used to burn defective tools. No Togunda worker likes to come here.

The houses of the workers are built around the furnace yards, so they can get to work quickly.

Handling security are not only the law enforcement drones, but the Fire Guardsmen, a Togunda force, that working with their Ugandal protectors, and the Lavantuft, protect and enforce the law.

The leader of the Fire Guardsmen is Captain Jakal, while the Chief Manager of The forgers is Chief Vakayos.

Management
Before it was made the capitol of the UAE, the Cities were managed by Governor Doume, a seasoned warrior, and retired Ultra Commando. He, and several other mayors and other important figures managed the cities' Sectors and subsectors. Each Sector got 1 manager, as did each subsector, though the number of subsectors differed.

Now, the Alliance's Council rules the city directly, though Doume still holds a great amount of power, since he remained second-in-command of the City.
