Planetary Designation: New Andrianopolis
Atmosphere: 75.2% N2, 18.1% O2, 3.7% CO2, 3% Trace Elements
Gravity: 1.27G
Planetary Summary:
New Adrianopolis is Terran-like planet that supports several different
ecosystems and climates. Roughly 15% larger then it'sancient
cousin, It can be broken down into the followingclimactic/ecological regions:
49% Water
21% Temperate planes
15% Mountainous
9% Rainforest/tropical
6% Desert
New Adrianopolis also has the distinction of having not one, but two
capitol cities. Adrianopol and Constanbul.
Planetary Economy:
Due to New Adrianopolis' varied climates, her industries and riches are just as
vast. Known mostly as an agricultural world, her wealth,
surprisingly, is attributable to the trade of the wide variety of
luxury goods cultivated on the planet. Some 5% of the planet's
temperate region is given over to game preserves that house exotic
furred animals of all sorts, making luxury furs one of the planet's
leading goods. High in the mountains of New Adrianopolis are rich
deposits of several precious gems, gold, platinum and silver. Special
farms grow exotic woods of all types for export, as well as medicinal
plants from the planet's rain-forests. The cities of New Adrianopolis
also produce a wealth of crafts for export, from jewelry, to pottery,
to fine fabrics, virtually all trades and crafts are represented in
the cities' great Bazaars. The pyons of New Adrianopolis live well in
comparison to many, there is ample food and substantial housing.
There are 22 major cities on the planet, and five Spaceports, the
brunt of the population, however, live in smaller villages. Also of
note, although on a lesser scale, are the magnificent horses bred
among the New Adrianopolis aristocracy. Careful breeding over the
Millennia has created a magnificent bloodline, that is traced back to
the majestic steeds of the ancient Terran deserts.
Geographical Information:
New Adrianopolis is almost half ocean, her other half, however, is
distributed among five continents. The largest, Persha, has the
widest range of climate, from arctic, to subtropical. Constanbul, the
summer capitol of New Adrianopolis islocated in Persha's temperate
planes. Palmyr, the second largest continent, is adjoined to Persha
by a small archipelago. Palmyr, is home to a vast mountain range and
mining deposits, as well as the majority of the planet's rainforests.
Macea and Lebon, are both medium in size, Macea being
temperate, and Lebon, tropical. Oasia, the fifth and smallest
continent is surroundedby the Southern Ocean. It's cliffs house rich
gem deposits and are carefully mined for their bounty. The interior
of Oasia is a vast desert, with a small inland sea in the center. The
lush garden landscape that circles the inland Sea of Sultans, forms
the winter capitol of Adrianopol.
Planetary Ecology:
With its diverse ecosystems, New Adrianopol hosts a great variety of flora and
fauna, and through the ages, great care hasbeen taken to obtain,
propagate, and cultivate as many off world species of flora and fauna
as can be sustained, often using it to the economy's benefit, as is
the case with rare and luxurious furs. All of the planet's steep
craggy mountains contain rich deposits of gems and ores, and are
mined judiciously to ensure their extended productivity, although
Mahmed the Scourge, did, in more recent times begin a terrible cycle
of mass depletion.
