Mainworld Data[edit]
It has been suggested that Coralee may have had a thicker atmosphere and more water at some time, having lost both in some ancient cataclysm such as an asteroid impact. This theory remains unproven.

This is a world often disputed by local powers.
In 754, Coralee was the site of a major battle between the Viyard Alliance and the Galian Trade League.
Until recently part of the Trindel Confederacy, Coralee is now generally considered to be a captive government, occupied by Viyard forces during the Clovian War of 1098.
- The Coralee Question remained unsettled after the Peace of Farnoc ended hostilities, and the system was never formally ceded to the victorious Viyard Concourse.
- Tensions remain high, and most urban centers are under martial law. Numerous popular liberation fronts have appeared and are carrying on a guerrilla war from bases hidden in the desert wilderness regions of the planet.

- Common Communication technologies for this TL include: Fiber optics and satellite communication and data networks.
- Common Power Generation technologies for this TL include: Early fusion power.
- Common Transportation technologies for this TL include:
- Land: Ultra high-speed trains and early grav vehicles.
- Water: High efficiency sailcraft, multihulled seacraft, improved artificial gills.
- Air: Tiltrotorcraft, exotic VTOL's, PARWIG, and rocket-assisted suborbitals.
- Space: SSTO spacecraft, early military spacecraft (System Craft), and interstellar STL starships
- FTL: Prototype Jump Drive-1.
World Government (G)[edit]
Coralee has a Captive Government or Colony. The world is ruled by an external government, there is no self-rule. A colony or conquered area. The local government is an oligarchy appointed by, and answerable only to, the external government.
Historical Data[edit]
The storied Galastrian Metals corporation collapsed during a workers' revolt on Tharver in 302, but within three years the League Concord had been signed, establishing the Galian Trade League, a trade corporation which essentially took over most of Galastrian's former holdings under looser reigns of authority and control. By the mid-500s, the League incorporated all of what is today the Galian Federation, the Plavian League, the Trindel Confederacy, and the coreward worlds of the Viyard Concourse.
