  • Capital City: Azuria
  • Planetary Features:
    • Constancias relatively close proximity to its asteroid field has resulted in the planet capturing numerous pieces of debris over the millennia, forming a visually striking ring of ice and rock around the planet.
    • The planet is in possession of a Planetary shield this is projected from towers on the planet's surface and is the pride of a Constancia. After the entire planet was held to ransom by the Empire in around 20 BBY and threatened with destruction an entire generation toiled for the installation of the Planetary shield so it could never happen again. It's symbolic importance is signified by its inclusion in the Planetary emblem, a thin line encircling the orb of the planet.
    • Constancia has an unusually high amount of copper in its crust, this is not a problem for its inhabitants and the levels are not high enough to be dangerous, but the levels of copper carbonates in the upper atmosphere have given the entire planet a green hue when viewed from space. This is a natural part of the planet's environment however and poses no risk.
    • The Gemini stations - two large shipyards above the North and south poles of the planet respectively. These serve a dual purpose as military bases and ship yards, able to construct and maintain a fleet of heavy warships. These stations are in a low stable position and during times when the planetary shield is at full power, they provide the only entrances and exits to the planet's atmosphere through a large ring at the centre of station.
    • The sea of steel - a vast area of the planet is urbanised over hundreds of years and from space looks almost like a sea 9f metal. This excessive urbanisation is looked on regretfully by the Constancians who have spent a lot of time and effort in reversing the damage to their planet
  • Major Locations:
    • Capital City - Azuria
      Azuria, in the northern most nation is very densely populated and built up. Home to nearly thirty million inhabitants, it is located near the centre of what has become known as the Sea of Steel. Significant work has taken place to modernise it and make it much more environmentally safe and pollution is well below safe levels. Due to original problems with urban planning, there is very little space at ground level for returning the area to nature. City laws require tall buildings to dedicate a percentage of their floor to open air park spaces which are free to access by the public at all times, and tax incentives encourage compliance. It is not a bad place to live, but is extremely busy and hectic. Azuria is home to the largest proportion of humans and other non Constancian or Zeltron inhabitants.

    • Planetary Senate - Located on the outskirts of Azuria and surrounded by public parks. The building is a strange design like a pyramid with another placed upside down on top of it. This is the seat of power of the government and also the administrative centre of the planet. It is an ultra modern building, build only recently and designed by an architect picked for his keen eye for environmental sustainability.

    • Gemini North - The northern of the Two Gemini stations, contains the main Naval command and control centres along with a large training facility. Of the two stations this station is primarily focused on out of system operations. It is the more secure of the two stations and civilians are rarely allowed on board, particular to the sensitive military dockyards.
    • Gemini South - a secondary command and control centre and the base of operations for in system authorities such as customs services. As Constancia is an active trading planet, Gemini South is the busier of the two stations and during times of peace, its capital sized shipyard are authorised and repurposed for hire by civilian and commercial interests.

  • Native Species:
  • Immigrated Species:
    • Zeltrons - what started as a small colony, drawn by how much their founders enjoyed being around the telepathic Constancians has grown to not be the largest single minority species on the planet
    • Humans - like all planets, Constancia has a large number of humans but they are the second highest minority species.
  • Population: Heavy - around 1.9 Billion as of 861 ABY Census
  • Demographics:
    • Constancian - 74%
    • Zeltron - 10%
    • Human - 9%
    • Others - 7%
    • Racism is not generally an issue, but the Constancians are protective of their cultural heritage, so in some areas where the minority populations are more prevalent, there can sometimes be minor tensions, particularly towards humans due to the previous homogenising effect of humans on many other worlds.
  • Primary Languages:
    • Constancian
    • Galactic Basic
    • Zeltron
  • Culture:
    • Very secular and science based lives in general. Religious observance is not banned or discouraged but there is no state endorsed faiths
    • Constancians love the arts, particularly music, it engages deeply with their telepathic minds and events will be held where music is played to a darkened room where attendees are encouraged to experience each other's reactions to the music. This can be very unnerving to some.
    • Strong emphasis on serving the planet, with education to a high level being mandatory and some military or civic service strongly encouraged.

  • Government:
    ezgif-com-gif-maker.gif

    Emblem of Constancia
    • Classified as a Federal Republic
    • An elected President serves for a maximum of two 6 year terms and is elected from the 36 national Senators. Once elected their position will be refilled meaning the government always contains 1 president and 36 Senators.
    • Planet made up of six nations, each with their own regional government
    • Each regional government is further broken down into 6 national governments, each with their own representative to the Planetary Senate.
    • The emblem of Constancia has six stars representing the six regions. Each star has 6 points representing the national Senators, with the seventh point on each star representing the Planetary president. This is meant to signify that the Planetary president is a member of all regions and should represent them all equally.
    • Every adult citizen gets a single vote for their Senators and also for the planetary president, however, as 90% of public votes for the president typically go to the voter's own senator. This vote considered advisory and the Senate have the final say on electing their president
    • Each nation will also have its own national assembly responsible for management of the affairs of the nation in question, in keeping with planetary law.
  • Affiliation: at the time of writing this, it is a member of the Galactic Alliance
  • Wealth: Wealthy. The planet and its people are industrious and modern. The sale of their technology and the ores from their asteroid field provide a significant income.
  • Stability: High
    Little political upheaval since the last civil war hundreds of years ago. The people are relatively happy and content. The telepathic nature of Constancians makes guilt easy to prove, making crime less of a problem as people fear getting caught.
  • Freedom & Oppression:
    • The laws are strict but fair. People mostly feel very free and unopposed.
    • The strictest laws involve telepathic consent. A species of telepaths could easily have many social problems as everyone can read each other's thoughts. But laws are passed to make it illegal to read someone's mind without their consent except in extreme cases such as life threatening emergencies and criminal proceedings.
    • Courts can apply for permission to read a defendant's mind to ascertain guilt. For this reason a lot of guilty pleas are offered and in general crime is relatively low.

  • Military:
    • Advanced Military. Well trained Infantry typically wear speed augmenting powered armour suits. These flight capable suits are mostly equipped with powerful shoulder mounted weaponry to supplement carried armaments are the backbone of the army, capable of performing most roles and reducing the need for armoured units in most theatres.
    • Planetary defence is provided by a capable fleet of star destroyers that patrol above the Planetary shield. This is supplemented by the two Gemini Stations.
    • Beneath the shield, tall towers which serve as both shield projectors and turbolaser emplacements defend the planet. If the shield is breached the enemy Will find themselves coming under significant fire from the ground. These towers were built centuries ago and are part of the Constancian skyline.

    • The fleet contains advanced heavy warships. The Constancians are typically not an aggressive people, so their navy is primarily tasked with the defence of the home planet.
  • Technology:
    • High technology world
    • Focus on clean energy projects. Advanced power reactors can take waste radioactive materials and generate clean energy, and the planet imports this waste from less developed worlds.
    • Near universal access to AI driven technology and quality of life aids.

Constancia is a world in the deep core, difficult to reach for a long time due to the problems navigating the deep core. But once discovered, the planet quickly became active in the Galactic community due to its proximity to many other core worlds. Due to the concern that their telepathy would become a hindrance or be abused, the Constancians hid it from public knowledge.

Shortly before the battle of Yavin Empire under Darth Sidious visited the planet and demanded that the people use their telepathic powers in service of the Empire. This was done under threat of annihilation, Han Solo and the Rebel Alliance managed to foil the Imperial plans and the planet was saved.

However, this was not the only time the planet came under similar threats so in around 90 ABY the Planetary government declared that Constancia would have a planetary shield. The planet would not take this on a debt to another world, valuing their independence, so a generation of Constancian industry was dedicated to making the Planetary shield a reality. Until in 126 ABY the shield was activated for the first time to much celebration amongst the populace.

The world now confidently re-entered Galactic politics and their already advanced technology progressed quickly, their battlesuits became a recognisable presence in the local sector and their fleet helped keep galactic trade moving. During these centuries of industrial revolution, the population grew rapidly and the planet became more urbanised and polluted. This problem was made worse during the 500s ABY when a short civil war between three nations, involving nuclear weapons, caused a near decade long cooling of the planet via Atmospheric contamination.

At the end of the 600s ABY, the planet's ecosystem was beginning to struggle with the development and Constancians were suffering multiple pollution related endemic illnesses. The now 6 regions and 36 nations of Constancia pledged to improve things, it took years for treaties to be written, nearly leading to renewed conflict between several nations but in 721 ABY the Accord of Constancian Futures was signed by all 36 members and the planet put itself onto a footing to return its environment to pre-industrial pollution levels.

This is where the planet is now, 150 or so years later, slowly turning into a modern utopia, regrowing its forests and de-urbanising its landscape. Carbon releasing fuels were banned outright and the planet leads the way in clean technology. There is still much to do, and analysts estimate it may be another 70 years before the planet's ecosystem returns to its pre-industrial state.

The current political status quo has been in place since the last civil war and Cosntancia is seeing a time of peace and prosperity, the first years of the accords were hard and austere, but Constancians, being dedicated to the betterment of their planet worked together to make it what it is now. As long as this trajectory continues, with year on year improvements in public health and well being, there is no likelihood of returning to instability.
