History and Background[edit]

Although originally a mining colony, the planet was extensively terraformed into a garden paradise by 788. As well as being a major agricultural exporter of exotic fruits it is also a major holiday site. Each year it caters for millions who come to enjoy adventure safaris or lay around in the domed paradise villages that are scattered throughout the equatorial belt.

Tscho is a privately owned planet belonging to the Akui Miasksk*k. Akui Miasksk*k have been extensively refurbishing the starport and is in the process of applying for Class-B status. Zirunkariish maintains offices here.

World Government[edit]

World Culture[edit]

S'mrii society is highly stratified and formed from large socioeconomic groups known as phyla. Each phylum has an overall rank in S'mrii society, which is widely described as pyramidal. Phyla vary widely in size, having anywhere between 6,000 and 15 million members.

  • The basic social unit within a phylum is the Ka'usui (or "family") consisting of a pair of S'mrii, their children, and attendant Kiakh'iee. Three or four ka'usui make up an Sk*khua ("circle") which is often equated to the Human extended family.
  • Loyalty to the phylum governing council is heavily emphasized as part of a S'mrii education.
