Geography

Kestrel is a beautiful world with fertile plains and plentiful natural resources. The world's colonization and industrial expansion were planned wisely. Most of the heavy industry were shifted to Kestrel's two moons, which were terraformed into habitable worlds of their own. Most of the population lives in big cities, which contain a lot of skyscrapers, leaving enough space for vast fields, plains and forests. All this turns Kestrel into one of the Garden Worlds of the Federated Suns, whose food exports feed many worlds throughout the Crucis and Draconis Marches.

Notes

Kestrel is the home planet of most members of the famous McKinnon's Raiders since 2786 when First Prince John Davion bestowed Captain Kieran McKinnon and his company with titles and lands on this world in return for their service.
