Aziziyah is not a true high population world, but is included because it will become one in the next thirty years as a result of the Askigaak Abandonment. Before the Collapse, Aziziyah was populated by feuding mining and fishing communities. Despite a wealth of resources, conflicts between miners and fishermen often boiled over into low level wars over contending property and exploitation rights. None of these conflicts ever escalated beyond pushing and shoving, and the Third Imperium showed little interest in the world. The locals lived in scattered island communities of a few hundred people each, posting heavily armed mercenary guards to prevent raids by their neighbors.
After the Collapse the locals created a unified government, and began to solicit closer ties with nearby worlds. It exported most of its ore to Askigaak for processing, and a close relationship blossomed between the two worlds. This relationship culminated in negotiations completed in 1197 that would make Aziziyah a colony of the more heavily populated Askigaak, and allow more living space for 'Gaak citizens. In 1201 the first work crews arrived to begin construction of several new underwater arcologies that will hold some ten million people when they are completed by 1209.
