Planetary Info
From orbit Tsukude looks like a tropical paradise. Thirteen large island continents are scattered across the planet's surface, with easy access to water, plants, and fish. The problem is that Tsukude's plants and animals don't use the same carbon dioxide/oxygen cycle that humans need. Instead the wildlife draws energy from nitrogen based sources in the planet's atmosphere. As a result the plants and animals are much more acidic than humans can tolerate. This meant that Tsukude's inhabitants have had to import most of their food ever since the world was settled.[1]
By contrast, the fossil fuels and natural gas that are abundant in the crust can be used anywhere. Tsukude's economy was based on these exports, as well as exported precious metals and some pharmaceuticals as well. Tourism also became a large part of the economy, with sport fishermen making up the largest demographic. The fish that were caught were (and are) inedible, but big game fishers love the challenge of landing a Tsukude seacat.[1]
After the fall of the Star League the DCMS often used Tsukude as a staging area for raids and assaults into the Lyran Commonwealth. The Commonweath in turn raided Tsukude frequently. As a result of the near constant warfare of the Succession Wars the tourism industry declined rapidly, and the raids quickly damaged the productivity of the refineries and mining operations.[1]
Tsukude has thirteen continents: Ikadae, Soto, Nakaru, Liam, Domashimi, Opana, Yoshetsu, Weng-Li, Taris, Kuyuna, Shobenwa.[1]
