- Culture: Located in the Mecetti Province, the world of Javis shares a noble rulership with appointed governors, magistrates, and mayors. Corporate culture is heavily emphasized, with business leaders acting as a sort of secondary nobility on the world. Major industries are nationalized as a subsidiary under the House Mecetti Nationalized Industries. The world's population is strongly monitored by the Ministry of Inquiry, who root out any anti-government sentiment, promote patriotism, and investigate for espionage while providing intelligence to the Throne World of House Mecetti on Obulette. There is an effort to keep the oppression of the population largely invisible, with troublemakers disappearing in the middle of the night. Many citizens are under the false impression that they lead free lives, and are largely happy. Those who are aware of the oppression of House Mecetti are usually wise enough not to speak of it.
- Government: Aristocratic Corporatism
- Affiliation: House Mecetti
- Wealth: High - due to a prospering industry
- Stability: High - the guiding hand of the House Mecetti Ministry of Inquiry keeps the population on course.
- Freedom & Oppression: The population is oppressed, but is given the impression that they are free. The prosperity of the world allows most people to persist happily in their lives without testing this impression. When someone does complain about the government, they usually fall silent or disappear before very long. Any critics that persist over time are usually Ministry of Inquiry operatives, making mild complaints while drawing potential troublemakers to themselves so they can be handled by the government.
- Military: Javis is a spacefaring world with a substantial military. There is usually a House Mecetti Star Destroyer in the system, hundreds of starfighters on planet, and thousands of troops stationed in major cities throughout the world.
- Technology: Galactic Standard
Javis was settled during the Colonial Era, millennia ago. The discovery of the world was so long ago to be lost to history. However, it is known that the Tapani noble houses had settled there before the time of the Galactic Republic, 26,000 BBY. Around 6,000 BBY, the Tapani Sector fell under control of the Sith Empire, and the Tapani noble Houses were forced to collaborate with the Sith in order to survive. The lasting influence of this occupation is the tradition of the Saber Rakes, which are light-foil wielding nobles who duel for prestige and honor on all the major worlds of the sector.
Javis is one of three great worlds in the Mecetti Province of the Tapani Sector, a center for industry and commerce. It is famously the home of Tampson Consolidated, a major-corporation that resettled to the world after falling into debt to House Mecetti. Eventually, they were nationalized along with most of the major industries in the Mecetti province. Tampson Consolidated manufactures everything from starships to droids to weapons and vehicles. However, while they are the most notable corporation on the planet, they are far from the only one. There are arcology cities dotted across the world in large industrial zones, manufacturing almost everything conceivable. There are also environmental stations along the equator that process the air and water of the world, collecting toxins that accumulate and shipping them offworld or recycling them for re-use on the planet's industry.
There are some undeveloped island regions and forested expanses kept as preserves, so that the citizenry do not become dispirited by the industrialization of their world. An effort is made to issue vacation packages to good workers and middle-management personnel to keep up morale, rotating them to resorts near preserved and undeveloped regions.
Nobles and high-level corporate leaders have access to such resorts by default.
