History and Background[edit]

An agricultural paradise, near the Terra-Prime ideal, the world of Diagemi is home to over a million inhabitants. Originally settled by the Vilani during the latter period of the First Imperium, Diagemi is one of two breadbasket worlds in the Cotan Cluster, the largest cluster in the Empty Quarter's Beta Quadrant. The planet's native wildlife and near-Terra conditions makes it a very popular destination for offworld tourism.

Diagemi is one of the most cheerful worlds of the Lorean Hegemony -- not that it takes a lot of cheer to surpass most Hegemonio systems. An agricultural paradise, the population was only lightly singed by the numerous wars that charred local space: even the Era of Horrors saw only a few mass graves and some terror raids, instead of cratered cities or razed continents. An originally Vilani system, Arab, East Indian, and later Arzula and even a few Damlaerite settlers have peaceably merged into more-or-less one ethnos, with the local religions having strong roots in the Bright Age. As they grew in wealth, a fair number of Irilitok Vargr settlers have also made their mark, but -- unusually for them -- they have kept their distance from the Human settlements, instead purchasing the 'western' region of a continent (in a temperate clime) as their own autonomous province under the local Vilani/Arabic monarchy.

In addition to a bounty of fruits, vegetables, meats, and spices streaming from the world to the tables of many nearby worlds, Diagemi is a center of tourism, with an abundance of native wildlife and Terra-like conditions. It is a favorite for both Humans and Vargr across Beta Quadrant.

World Starport (Sp)[edit]

Diagemi has a Class C Starport, an average quality installation which features amenities including unrefined fuel for starships, some brokerage services for passengers and cargo, and a variety of ship provisions. There is a shipyard capable of doing maintenance and other kinds of repair. Ports of this classification generally have only a downport, unless this is a trade port or system with an hostile environment mainworld.

World Population (P)[edit]

Diagemi has a population of 2,000,000 sophonts (millions).

  • This is a Nonindustrial World, too small to support the complete chain of production of most goods from start to finish.

World Timeline[edit]

These are some of the more important historical events that have affected this world and the surrounding region:

  • 814: The Third Imperium and the Arzula authorities forge a trading agreement, leading to the creation of the Deep Space Stations of the Saeghvung-Turley-Exile Run, crossing the Lesser Rift in Empty Quarter Sector.
  • 822-835: Much of Arzul Sector is conquered by the Arzula.
    • 835-860s: The Blighted War drains the Arzula's nascent Hegemony as it tries to conquer five subsectors.
  • 864: The modern Hegemony of Lorean is founded, starting out as a 'trade and aid' group of interstellar traders centred on a cluster of high-population systems dominating Mycocona Subsector.
    • The great success of this trade coalition leads to a sharp rise of economic and then military power.
  • 869-870: The repressive methods of the Hegemony, and the refusal of local resistance to buckle, leads to the Era of Horror in parts of coreward Empty Quarter Sector, as the Hegemony responds with undue cruelty against its enemies.
  • 872: The worlds of Kotsfa Subsector secede from the Hegemony, defying efforts to stop them.
    • Further disintegration is only prevented with the suicide of the Hegemon and radical economic reforms introduced by his successor.
  • 933-936: The defection of the Damlaer Union from the Julian Protectorate to the Hegemony leads to the Lorean Strikes. Failed military action leads to a major political crisis within the Protectorate.
  • 940: As part of this political upheaval, the government of the Ikonaz Sphere collapses, replaced by the Rukadukaz Republic.
  • 942: The Protectorate and the Hegemony formally sign the Treaty of Var-Inaka (restricting naval basing) and the Julian Concord, incorporating the Hegemony into the Julian Protectorate.
