| + | === Geography === | ||
| + | Yangtze's two small continents - which they named Han and Sung - were flat, covered in a thick layer of fertile soil and fed by seasonal flooding from the many slow-moving rivers on each continent they named the planet Yangtze after the floodplain of the same name on Terra. It wasn't until the era of the [[Star League]] that Yangtze truly prospered, however; fear of the wide-scale inland flooding caused the settlers to build small villages and towns huddled on the rocky coasts of the two continents, rather than building inland.<ref name=DARWp94/> | ||
