Torian II

This page refers to the planet Torian II, in the Torian system.

Description
The planet of Amistel Gamma is covered almost completely in water, only a few islands being raised above sea level. The planet houses 110 million people divided in little over 10000 towns and cities. Approximately eighty percent of the population work in the fishing and kelp farming industries.

The planet has standard gravity, even though the average temperature lies around 12 degrees Celsius. An Amistel day lasts about 32 standard hours, while an Amistel year lasts about 280 standard days.

Amistel Gamma is ruled by Planetary Governor Varlam, an Unstul who have worked his way up from the fishing industry to his current position. He is loved by the population.

History
Torian II is the first and only colony of the Unstul. They arrived by chance in the Torian system and settled on Torian II which is remarkably similar to their homeplanet of Amistel Gamma, except for different plants and predators.

The system - and the Torian Unstul - was discovered by the Confederacy in 14 ABY, and quickly joined the Confederacy. Since then, the general technology level of the planet have soared, and the Torian Unstul now make their own hyperdrive capable vessels, though there are still relatively few of them.
