Geography:
Somewhere in the outer reaches of the Milky Way galaxy is a solar system called Carridia. It's not known by many due to it's distant location and also isolationist policies by the government ruling the system. Carridia System has four planets, Carridia Prime, Carridia Minor, Carridia III and Carridia IV. Carridia Prime is the only planet on the system with decent conditions for living. It is bit larger than Earth, and it's climate ranges from the tropical conditions on the southern half of the planet to subarctic and arctic conditions on the northern half.
Carridia Minor is a snowy planet with average temperature of -80 celsius degrees. Snowstorms rage on the planet, and it's extremely cold weather conditions make it almost impossible for any life to survive in the surface. Howewer, there are several underground facilities in the planet, such as feared Carridia Minor Penal Colony (OOC:Also secret military bases, but you don't know that ;) ).
Carridia III is a large gas planet approximately same size as Jupiter. It is made of various gases, and large gas clouds cover the "surface". Several mining stations that mine the valuable gases of the planet have been established to the orbit.
Carridian people:
Carridian people originate from humans on planet Earth. In the 23rd century, a colony ship was sent from Earth to a planet far away in space. The expedition composed mostly of military men and scientists, and also carried an extensive database of Earth. After years of travel howewer, an asteroid hit the ship and it's propulsion systems were damaged. The ship drifted in space until it finally managed to land on a distant planet in the system now known as Carridia around 2255 A.D. Many colonists were killed during the landing and the colonists experienced large equipment losses.
Years in Carridia were hard for the colonists, and only the strongest and those with ability to survive made it through the years. Over years colonists, led by a man named Alexander Diarro managed to make it through the worst and established an organized society, and in the year 2381 the Commonwealth of Carridia was established.
Carridians soon built spaceships, and in year 2405 they had explored their entire solar system and built permanent space and mining stations. In 2409 the first interstellar expeditionary ship was launched.
Now Carridia controls the entire solar system of Carridia. It has good spaceship, and the society is well-being. Howewer, criminal activity such as space piracy troubles Carridia and also discontent and terrorism against the government has risen
The years of troubles have affected Carridians, both by genes and psychology, and they differ considerably from their cousins on Earth. As an example, most Carridians are tall and strong, as "weaker" people died during the years after the landing. As only the strongest and fittest survived, genetical illnesses and deformities are almost non-existent in the Carridian people.
Carridians consider other humans to be weak as they have not gone through what Carridians have. The Carridian thought of "strenght" and "weakness" is one of the key factors in their society. Army has elite units that are entirely made of genetically most "appropriate" citizens who've been taken from their parents as babies and trained to fight from childhood, "weak" babies are often killed at the maternity ward etc.
Government:
Carridia is a commonwealth ruled by a council of 25 military governors. Each of the military governors is responsible for control of his/her territory. Military governors are aided by "chancelleries" that equal ministries on other countries. Military governors all have their own security forces, but actual Carridian Defence Forces are under join control of the council.
