DAILY LIFE: Despite the plots and common power hunger amidst those with noble titles or those that desire to grow in society. Life in Cocoon by the common man is quite calm, the pursuit of happiness, they are taught to raise families and make them big, to ensure their lines and to make sure they will work hard for society. The King of Cocoon has common announcements every now and then and it’s quite loved by the masses, just like those Lords and Knights with small lands and keeps around the planet. There are no drugs in Cocoon and it’s system, like there are no crime lords in the planet. A free world, Cocoon teaches the younglings to be true, brave, and proud, and also, most of the natives and those that live in the planet have converted to the Primal, worshiping the local deities and praying for them. One of the greatest sports in the planet is racing, and tourneys where swords and spears meet themselves in a glorious battle. Art is something quite relevant, as most inhabitants have their own art, combined with Elzeri and aliens technologies, the art in Cocoon is a bit, somewhat, mixture of gothic with futuristic, leaving the constructions in the planet with a steampunk look for foreigners. Their deities, the Occuria, are worshipped as the gods that created the whole universe and allowed the Elzeri and alien races to find a home and peace in Cocoon. Prays and offerings are quite common in Primal sanctuaries, and once a month, the skies are filled with ships travelling to Giruvegan, to offer pray for the gods.
GOVERNMENT & ECONOMY
Settled somewhat between 25,200 BBY or 25,053 BBY by Humans after the fall of the Rakatan Infinite Empire. The locals were known as Kaikielii. An aristocratic world, Kaikielius was ruled by the noble Great Houses, of which the oldest and most prominent were the Triad of House Praji, House Vahali, and House Juoni, with lesser houses vying for patronage. Before the rise of the Galactic Republic, Kaikielius had held suzerainty over Ruan, the moons of Jonsior, and Foerost,
An early ruler of the planet was Governo Tyler Sapius Praji, who was a signatory of the Galactic Constitution, bringing Kaikielius into the Galactic Republic as a Core Founder.
Once a proud world that was one of the founders of the Old Republic. Little more than 800 years ago, not long after Palpatine fell for the second time, Governor Nahdonnis Praji made himself King of Kaikielius under the New Republic banner. Until the Yuuzhan Vong war came, where the planet was found by two large flotillas, colony ships, of the Elzeri. Allowing the ships to board their planet and the people to join the big and green lands in Kaikielius, soon proved to be a mistake. As the elzeri brought weird idols and strange customs to the humans, beginning to mix with humans and creating hybrids, which made even great houses like House Juoni to have them in their bloodline. For the desire of the long lifespan of the elzeri was highly admired by the kaikieli, but as soon as those hybrids proved that they lived more than average humans, leading their houses, the lines of hybrids were, not long, totally taken by elzeri brides and heirs.
War rushed through this, the Praji against the elzeri, the elzeri tribes against each other, the Noble Houses turned against one another, a war for religion, for identity, for race. A greater war through the galaxy made the major powers in the galaxy to turn a blind eye for the small conflict in Kaikielius. After a decade of civil war, a great warrior rose in the planet, named Ajora Glabbados, half elzeri and half human, he defeated every single nation in the planet, murdering the last members of House Praji and declaring new Great Houses to take their place. Offering a fair solution, to have the council of Nine Great Houses chose one to rule as King or Queen for life, Ajora Glabbados became the first ruler of what was now called Cocoon. A name the population chose for they would rise from inside the planet damaged from war, like it was a bug cocoon. The name stuck, and Cocoon it was called. Religion was united under the Primal, in worship of the pointy ears deities, and soon, the planet slowly marched for progress, after Glabbados died, his planet elected a new ruler. And the march for evolution began, this new King of House Stark, went on to find other alien races, like the elzeri in days past, to settle in moons and many other parts in Cocoon, thus bringing a more diverse society, allowing those races to become nobles and thus ensuring them a equal chance of ruling Cocoon.
For the next 700 years, the elzeri prospered and humans diminished in size, soon the world became more populated by the elzeri, and that was it. History became legend, legend became tale, and peace brought prosperity and wealth. And with the fall of the Galactic Alliance, the Conclave of nobles saw themselves alone in the core, with enemies not far, by a new movement lead by House Solidor and House Targaryen, the conclave decided to vote on a new flag and new way of rule. Thus, creating the Interstellar Protectorate, with the sole ideals of protecting, defending, ensuring prosperity, bringing peace to the core worlds.
Intent: To establish a capital for the future of the Interstellar Protectorate. A place where the many can RP if they wish.

Oldtown, formerly known as Kesipli: The old capital of Cocoon, before it’s relocation and construction of Pendragon. The second greatest city, surrounded by forests and a small desert. The city still holds a magnificent look and architecture of the old glory days of house Praji, now the city has fallen under the grace and control of House Hightower.
The Royal Capital of Pendragon: Said to be one of the most glorious and outstanding cities in the core worlds. Pendragon was built in contrast with the farming zones, green lands and under the grace of huge mountains around the city. The royal capital received that name for hosting the Royal Palace, where the King of Cocoon resides. Street markets, urban zones, farmers, build with only two entrances. The modern city is a place where all can find a home. The city of Pendragon forms an octagon with the Royal Palace at its center. Around the Palace sit the Conclave Chambers and other administrative quarters, beyond which lies a booming mercantile district. The buildings in the city center are quite tall, with the lower floors being used mainly as residences. The difference in heights between the various buildings makes this a city of small airships, that being the most efficient means of accessing all levels of the metropolis. More than half the population of Pendragon is Elzeri, and while at one time all lived near the ground, of late, those of power or particular wealth have taken to living in the higher apartments and traveling exclusively by private airship.
The Red Keep: The Red Keep is made of pale red stone. It has seven massive drum-towers crowned with iron ramparts. Massive curtain walls surround the keep, with nests and crenelations for shooters. Thick stone parapets, some four feet high, protect the outer edge of the wall ramparts. The walls have great metal gates and portcullises, with narrow postern doors nearby. The immense barbican has a cobbled square in front of it. Behind the walls are small inner yards, vaulted halls, covered bridges, barracks of the guards, dungeons and granaries.
The Sunsea Sea: A wild and savage sea that takes over 25% of the planet. Much fishing and hunting is done in this ocean, with many types of weird life forms found. Small islands are common in the sunset.

A planet with lands divided by small nobles houses ruled by Lords and Ladies, Barons and Baronesses, those small houses control trade like custom officers and pray proper tribute for the government. All paying homage and serving the eight Nine Houses in Cocoon, those houses being selected amidst the populations spread across planet.

The Kings job is to rule Cocoon for life, or until dismissed of his job by other families.
Affiliation: Interstellar Protectorate.
Wealth: High.
Stability: High. With High law enforcements and the noble houses ensuring the law amidst its citizens, crime rate is quite low. Thievery and burglary are most common, but so rarely murders and other heinous crimes are committed. Due to the great fear of Cocoon’s law of heinous crimes, such as Death Penalty for murderers and rapers, it also includes ostracism of his whole family. Or worse, to work on the mines of its mining moons, where hard work can make a man last at maximum 4 years.
Freedom & Oppression: Low-Medium. It's not a free world where you can curse you’re local lord or baron in the local bar, since most other citizens due work for them. Usually that ends up with big taxes on the man's family, or him being fired.

the Cavalry (Response Stars Brigade): The naval forces of the Protectorate.
Guardian Corps: The ground forces of the Protectorate.

Kingsglaive: Guards that protect the royal household.
Magisterium: In charge of ensuring the law is applied.
