NationStates Jolt Archive

This is the counter-part to my Encyclopedia of Technology thread. This is meant to be a quick reference of my nation for myself and others. I'm still working on it so keep an eye on it if you're interested in knowing more about my nation.

Planets:
- Xess, homeworld
-- approximate population 300 million
--- The star of the Xess system, called XessAlpha, is a G2 V main-sequence star 5.3 billion years old. The Xessmithian homeworld, Xess, is 1.3 AU out from the star. Xess is slightly smaller than Earth with .90 Earth gravity. The atmosphere is less dense than Earth's and the average surface temperature is 260 degrees Kelvin.

The planet has 2 main continents, In the northwestern hemisphere is New Africa, this is the largest continent. In the southeastern hemisphere is the continent New Antarctica, it reaches to the south pole up the equator. Scattered through the oceans are numerous island continents the size of Australia and many small chains of islands.

Xess is protected by thousands of planetary PDF installations, thousands of fighter squadrons XPDF bases around the globe, the XN's home defense fleet and a Class X Planetary Shield.

- Gateway, first colonized system
-- outside of NFZ
-- approximate population, 55 million
--- Gateway orbits a F0 primary, Gate A, in an orbit of 1.6 AUs. The secondary, Gate B, is a M3 dwarf in six lighthour radius orbit around Gate A. Gateway has a surface gravity of 1.1 standard gravities and an average surface temperature of 274 degrees Kelvin.

Gateway's population is focused on a few cities on the main continent. The rest being devouted primarily to agriculture.

Gateway is defended by a Class X planetary shield and four primary XPDF defense bases and XMI bases.

- Icefire, new colony system
-- source of Icefire fuel
-- outside of NFZ
-- approximate population 5 million
--- Icefire A is a K3 star. Icefire orbits .5 AU from its primary. The small population is centered in Hybald City, which is where Xessmithia's primary processing centers of Icefire fuel are located. It is defended by a Class aX Theater Shield.

The No-FLy-Zone:
- A 30-ly radius sphere of space in which Xess is located. This space is odd in that it somehow distorts FTL vectors, rendering FTL travel in it very dangerous. Any object travelling at FTL speeds in this space will be shifted far off-course, the amount of distortion is inversly proportional to mass, meaning that the more mass the less distortion. TCG gates are used for FTL travel in this area by Xessmithia as they act like anchors for FTL travel, reducing the distortion to within tolerable levels.

I'm going to post more detailed info when I get the time
