Streletania

"How can anyone live here? It's so dark!" -Tourist

Overview

Streletania, also known as Strele, is a cool temperate world located in the Jewel System of the The Jewel. It is the Homeworld of the Streletanian Species, an alien species known for their incredible sight and poor hearing. This world is constantly in a state of darkness thanks to a number of factors, such as its somewhat dark atmosphere and distance from the system's sun. Despite this, the planet does somehow managed to stay relatively warm thanks to the many hot springs scatted across the surface and small amounts of volcanic activity.

The planet is about 13,256 km and is the 5th planet in the system. A day lasts about 40 hours, while a year is about 400 days. It is the 6th Planet in the System

Early History

The earliest we know of Streletania was around 20,000 CE, when a Human/Havonian Probe saw small white dots on the surface, these being small villages. At this time, the Streletanians were considered sentient, and had just achieved hyperspace travel, with early stations and craft being present as early as 5,000 CE . IT was not until 20,100 CE that the planet would establish contact with the outside, notably with Coursillus, a relatively new Thandetian colony. Trade was officially open with most of the Coursillusian worlds in 20,101 CE.

Over the Years, the Streles would rapidly industrialize and by 26,000 CE, they would colonize the nearby moon of Barillies, a near copy of Streletania itself. They would be relatively peaceful and out of galactic affairs until 86,120 CE.

Joining the Federation

In 90,900 CE, Streletania was considering joining the new nation for extra protection, but delays and hesitancy in the Government caused Streletania to not be a Founding Member.

However, this changed in 90,945 CE, when a Streletanian from the Member world of Varudo-5 became the Chancellor of the Federation, managed to convince the remaining worlds of the jewel system, which included Streletania and Barillies to join the Federation. Streletania officially joined the Federation in 90,947 CE, with the Barelliesians joining 1 year later.

Modern Day

Streletania continues to be a very strong member of the Federation, the renounced Strele-Bares Construction Systems calls this planet home, and many other corporations have offices here such as MSBC, Xonuvis-Guepra Fusion Corp, and LasonMotors, Inc. Streletanian soldiers have been known to hold positions and fight with valor.
