Darvikus

Overview

Darvikus is the fourth planet in the Frealee System and the homeworld of the Darvikans. Darvikus has three major moons, Arnena, Ronelis, and Frar. Darvikus is most associated with the Cnara-Frealee Federation, as it is the homeworld of the federation's second most powerful species and the legislative capital of the federation. The planet houses several bureaus which help run the United Nations of the Flower Galaxy, but is not one of the official capitals. Even so, Darvikus is one of the most important worlds in the galaxy's history, as it served as the birthplace of the Darvikans, the second most powerful species in said galaxy. Due to its importance in galactic history, Darvikus is one of the most well-known planets in the galaxy.

As of today, Darvikus is a paradise residential world, one of the top tourist destinations in the Flower Galaxy, and a very busy trading hub. Many arcologies are barely visible from orbit splattered across the continents. Some are even underwater in the planet's oceans.

Most farming on the planet is done by self-sufficient arcologies. Usually, only luxuries need to be brought in, meaning that the planet can and has weathered many a siege.

Darvikus is much greener than it was in ages past, as almost the entire population lives in self-sufficient buildings called Arcologies, leaving most of the surface area to turn to wild, including the abandoned and disassembled cities.

Most energy on Darvikus comes from beamed power from the Frealee Dyson Swarm and other renewable energy sources like solar and wind. Some also comes from recently developed forms of nuclear fusion that are clean and safe. A tiny percentage comes from geothermal processes in Darvikus' mantle and outer core, while the rest comes from power plants in the Arcologies.

Population

Being the homeworld of the Darvikans, it would be expected to have a large population. It actually does have a large population, over 5.9 trillion people. This is far over the natural holding capacity, but this is sustained by large networks of self-sufficient Arcologies where most of the population lives.

Darvikus is quite culturally diverse, as it still contains fragments of every single extant human culture, some of which still follow state borders.
