Wallis has a hot and steamy atmosphere. Its capital city, Jamestown, is on the Rotuma continent. The other three continents are Alofi, Samoa, and Tuvalu. Wealthy residents (like the [[Walloon]] family) take a break from the high heat and humidity by visiting [[Vuzar]], the seventh planet in the system. Vuzar is largely covered with ice and snow. The equatorial region however is warm enough that people can visit it with just a snow suit.<ref name=O:FWLp14/>  
 
 
 
As of [[3067]], the capital city was stated to be "Port City",<ref name=DaW>''Determination at Wallis'', p. 6</ref> which straddles the great Bora River.
