== Planetary History ==
 +
A beautiful world, the severe weather patterns on Cairspharn caused by the three large moons in orbit ensured that only the hardiest colonists could survive. The tornadoes, thunderstorms, blizzards, and ice storms discouraged many settlers, but the arable land could grow transplanted crops and the native fauna were also a good food source. These advantages, along with the landscapes, encouraged many settlers to stay. The Carsphairnians rejected skyscrapers, which were dangerous in the world's high winds, and instead preferred to build low structures close to ground level. Big farms and other large land areas were enclosed in weather-repelling domes.<ref name=DARWp176/>
  
===Planetary History===
+
Over time the world became part of the Lyran Commonwealth, but considered itself a member of the Federation of Skye first and the Commonwealth second. During the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]] its location several jumps away from any borders insured that it survived most of the conflicts intact. It wasn't until the [[Jihad]] that the world saw any enemy troops; the [[Word of Blake]] landed several times to acquire food for their troops.<ref name=DARWp176/>
