Planet:Jora

Jora is a lush, green ocean, red terrain world. Home of the Jovar, this planet orbits the star Meltes approximately 8,200 parsecs from the galactic core. The planet is rich in life, both on land and in the oceans. Considered as one of the most important political planets in the galaxy, Jora's capital, Chlen, is the site where most of the Jovar Empire's governing takes place. Jora is inhabited by thousands of smaller towns and villages, but the majority of the population lives in the 10 major cities. The total population of the planet is well over 1 trillion. No major battle has ever occurred on Jora, thanks to the heavy defences placed in star systems close by. Jora has a ring system, most likely created in the same event that created its moon, Haelsier, a T2 world with its own life. Located in the Meltes System, it was created about 3 billion years ago with the rest of the solar system. It is said that life was formed on Jora when a comet with the elements essential for life on it smashed into the planet's ocean. Creatures soon evolved from these elements. Evidence of a former civilization exist on Jora. Large temples have been unearthed by archeologist, and massive piles of rocks tens of miles in the atmosphere are located on the planet. However, no fossil evidence of a former race exists. This would make the Jovar a much more successful species.

Terrain
Jora is mostly a flat plain surrounded by three oceans. A few mesas dot the landscape, but for the most part, the planet is relatively flat. The tallest point on the planet is actually an orbital elevator that leads to a space station about 400 km above the surface. The next tallest point is also artificial, a huge pile of rocks 21,000 meters high that has existed since ancient times. The deepest point on the planet is a trench 4.6 km below sea level.

Climate
Jora's climate is perfect for life. Its not too hot, cold, dense, or thin. Occasionally, the planet experiences thunderstorms, but they are for the most part quite mild. The planet is tilted on its axis 25 degrees, so the planet experiences seasons. During the colder months, many plant and animals hibernate to keep warm from the chilling -20 degree weather. Jora's warm months are intense, and the planet can reach temperatures up to 120 degrees Fahrenheit.

Haelsier
Jora's moon, Haelsier is a T2 moon. It also harbors life in and out of its vast ocean. No one quite knows how the strange streaks on the moon's surface originated, but they make the Haelsier quite unique.

Haelsier is the primary weapons producer of the Jovar Empire. Its population is estimated to be about 100 million, and almost all of the citizens work in the factories. Haelsier is also the shipyard for the massive Earthbound spacecraft.
