Garrea

Overview

Template:!World InfoboxGarrea is the innermost planet in the Dorok System, the capital of the Free Nation of Garrea, and a major world of the United Nations of the Florathel Galaxy. Garrea is relatively desolate compared to most homeworlds, due to its tidal lock to its parent star and the resultant temperature extremes on the subsolar point and night side. As of now, Garrea has a relatively low population compared to other major worlds like Artaclate and Carlea. Currently, Garrea is the most powerful member of the FGN Core Worlds, and is a major influence in the nation as a whole (aside from the whole capital thing).

Properties

Garrea is relatively small, being only ~4,700 km in radius, and its mass is similarly low. Unlike many inhabited worlds, the planet's biodiversity is relatively low, due to its extremely harsh conditions. Aside from this, and the smaller scales, Garrea is very much habitable. Its system is more oxygen-rich than normal, and as a result Garrea has more tectonic activity and a stronger magnetic field than what would be expected of a planet this size, nearly 6.5 billion years old.

Atmosphere

Garrea's atmosphere is relatively thin, due to the effects of highly powerful bursts of solar wind from its parent star. These flares are mostly negated by Garrea's powerful magnetic field, otherwise the planet's atmosphere wouldn't even exist. Due to its advanced age, Garrea also has a high percentage of Argon compared to younger planets.

Aside from these statistics, Garrea's atmosphere also contains little oxygen, due to the paucity of plant life here. The native Rorazals have evolved to be perfectly comfortable under these conditions, but it is uncomfortable or even lethal for most other oxygen breathing species.
