==== (IV) Zuramid ====
(IV) Zuramid is designated the [[mainworld]]. It orbits Almera at a mean distance of 1.04 AU (155.6 million km), within the [[habitable zone|H–]] region of the inner system. It has an orbital period of 339 days 19 hours and a rotation period of 17.5 hours. The axial tilt is 25 degrees. Zuramid has a diameter of 13,244 km, a density of 6.16 g/cm³, and a surface gravity of 1.16 G. Tidal stresses generated by the gravitational pull of Darnation, its large [[satellite|moon]], cause frequent geological activity. Its atmosphere is rated as [[Dense Atmosphere|Dense]], [[Tainted atmosphere|Tainted]], with a mean surface pressure of 3.38 bar and a composition of 79% nitrogen (N<sub><small>2</small></sub>), 20% oxygen (O<sub><small>2</small></sub>), and 1% argon (Ar), water vapor (H<sub><small>2</small></sub>O), carbon dioxide (CO<sub><small>2</small></sub>), neon (Ne) and other trace gases. The [[Tainted atmosphere|taint]] is caused by the extremely high atmospheric pressure: breathing the air without artificial assistance can result in nitrogen narcosis and oxygen toxicity. Zuramid is a [[water world]]: approximately 99.7% of the surface is covered in oceans of liquid water. Average tidal ranges exceed 0.75m. Mean surface temperature: 4°C. The [[Fringian_Variant_System_Description#Planetary_Climate|climate]] is rated as Temperate-Cool and experiences moderate changes during the local year. The atmosphere is dynamic and powerful weather systems driven by the star and the oceans surge across the globe.
