Planetary Info
Wapakoneta has five large continents and many islands scattered through the large freshwater seas that cover most of its surface. Most of the inhabitants live on the largest continent, New Wisconsin, located on the equator and covered in forests. Little Florida Island is the smallest continent and it is also the one located furthest away from the equator. There are some inhabitants here in the city of Tassel, but most of the island is covered in glaciers. The remaining three continents are scattered across the planet's surface but are uninhabited due to the massive typhoons that whip across them constantly.
The planet's economy is largely based around the export of aquaculture grown marine life. Though the many small islands are beautiful, Wapakoneta's location on the Draconis Combine border has limited the tourism industry to the local population.
The AFFS maintains a base at Stygian Shoals, an island located forty kilometers off the south coast of Little Florida Island. Stygian Shoals is sixty kilometers long and sixteen wide, providing it with enough space to host troops traveling through the Draconis March. It is also the home of Camp Getty, the Draconis March's best marine combat school.[1]
