Reshkhuda is a rich world with a shirt-sleeve atmosphere and a balance of available surface water. The system supports a population in the 100s of millions, which makes it too urbanized to be an agricultural world. It is a member of Julian Protectorate in the Tsosoe Subsector of Empty Quarter Sector and in the Hegemony of Lorean.

History and Background

Reshkhuda was the population center of the Kingdom of Uenkakh, a Vargr-dominated interstellar government founded in 509. As a member of the Great Alliance, the Kingdom fought in the Nishhingh War (629-645), and was invaded at heavy cost of life for both invaders and defenders. The Kingdom was dissolved at 645, marking the end of the war.

The TL 13 Suedzuk Vargr and human nations were locked in combat when a series of diseases were released, at around 40-722. All of the Vargr and most of the humans died, with the human population plunging from 100 billion to 900 million by the early 800s.

As of 993, Reshkhuda is a rich and bountiful land, capable of supporting billions at TL 2 - very comfortably. Illnesses are temporary nuisances- the human body has stronger recuperative powers here. However, the parochial locals loathe non-humans, especially Vargr. The world was once a high-tech centre: asking about those days can provoke a riot.

The oldest living man in the quadrant, King Atacales, resides here: he is now 302 Terran years old.
