Fiction:Greater Wental Allaince/Locations

Trat-Rem-Yui
The current capitol of the GWA, Trat-Rem-Yui was a formerly unihabited world, and is central to the GWA territories, and therefore easily defended. Trat-Rem-Yui is really a 3-planet collection. The planets orbit each other in what looks to have become a steady, stable orbit. Due to them orbiting so close to each other, their volcanic cores have never cooled, having been kept hot and liquid by the gravitational pull of each other. They orbit a large, yellow main-sequence star, much like Sol. Each planet is within the habitable range of the star, and each one contains life. It is thought that life evolved on one, and at varying stages of it’s history left for the others.

Trat
Trat has mammal level life, showing that it was the planet to first get life on it’s surface. The life is carbon based and very diverse, there hasn’t been a major extinction event in almost 37 million years on that planet. It has a 42% land, 58% water surface, and is mostly forests with mountains and jungle. It has polar icecaps and is ripe for colonization.

Rem
Rem is a smaller planet then the others, and is farther out from the other two. It has fern-like plants and reptilian life making up most of it’s biosphere. A dino-age planet. The planet has a 39% water, 61% land surface and is mostly desert with vast plains and few mountains. The planet itself is believed to be older then the system, having been captured as a rouge planet and placed into orbit by natural causes a long time ago. This planet is to dangerous to be colonized, as many of the creatures there would eat the average Wentalan for desert.

Yui
Yui is an insect world. It has vast wetlands covering it’s entire surface, and has a 63% water, 37% land. The planet is primitive, with giant trees and ferns along with massive insects like sphereflys (spherical shaped insects with 8 wings and no legs) and quirps (centipedes with large, spherical mouths and an eye ring around their heads). This planet was recently hit by a large comet, and is recovering from the mass extinction that followed.

Yames
The Capitol of the Yama Empire and the center of the PWA forces. This is a large, rocky planet with endless rains. Makes a very good place to hide cities, as they are mostly underground. The planet is high in resources and has massive fleet-hosting capabilities. The planet is a cold, wet world, like an eternal winter rain. If it’s oceans would stay in the ocean they would cover 92% of the planet’s surface, as it is they only cover 53% of the planet’s surface. That’s 39% less because of the ever rains. Only on the tops of the tallest mountains can sun be found. Besides the eternal rains, Yames has vast amounts of freshwater, which makes it perfect for hosting a vast fleet of ships that need freshwater. The Yama have slowly put more and more water onto the planet, and they intend to do so until 98% of the planet’s surface is water. They only bring freshwater though, so the vast majority of the water on Yames is fresh. They live and house the actual fleet and capitol on its 2 moons. Each moon is the size of earths moon, and they orbit the planet in a stable manner. The moons are the real capitol of the Yama empire, and contain their actual fleet. Yames is just their water/food producing planet. It is, however their homeworld.

Eridine 3
Eridine 3 is the capitol of the Iron Giants. They are in the process of rebuilding the planet after their civil war, but they seem to be doing a very good job of it. They intend to turn it into one of their glorious cities of old, with their vast and beautiful towers and the equally vast and beautiful fields and forests that the now dead planet was said to have.

The Transgate System
There are, scattered across the Wental Galaxy, mighty structures. Using tech that the GWA is only just beginning to understand, these gates allow immediate travel from one place to another. They are large enough to send the average earth sized planet though one, and are placed all across the galaxy. Some are in now busy star systems, others in the empty vacuum of space, some are even located beyond the Wental Galaxy, far from anything currently habited. Why they are located where they are located is unknown, how they work is even less known, but their purpose seems clear. They are for transportation. The GWA controls about 2/3s of the Transgate System, but the LWA controls the rest. In recent times, the Wental Alliance has started to figure out how to use them, and have found that they do not need a corresponding gate unless you wish to return to your destination. You place the coordinates of your destination and then you wait for the machinery to work. Because this could allow for an enemy fleet to traverse from one place to another in mere moments, the GWA and LWA have agreed not to use them, even if war becomes open and volatile. If ones does, they are guaranteed to be attacked and destroyed by the other, and since everyone knows where the capitol planets are, neither side wishes to be attacked there. So it’s like the Nuclear Danger on earth today, neither side wants to use the weapons because if they do both sides will be destroyed.
