[3067]Blessed with huge tracts of untamed forests, extensive mineral resources, and mountainous reaches, Terra
Firma, in many ways, was considered a twin to the nearby Capolla. Colonized jointly with Capolla by a
collection of small corporations and independent homesteaders, trade between both worlds led to a prosperous
and semisymbiotic relationship even before the formation of the Terran Hegemony and the Star League.
This relationship worked so well that both worlds supported a strong and diverse economic and social base
without the need for major military industries. In a deal brokered at the twin system's entry into the Hegemony,
Terra agreed to a limited autonomy for both worlds - a policy that every successive power after the Hegemony
assumed as well.
landscape and many cities were damaged by heavy fighting. The formation of the Terracap Confederation with
Capolla helped Terra Firma to recover, but aid from the Word of Blake, in exchange for the right to place
military bases and "defensive forces" on the planet, truly brought the planet's ravaged infrastructure back from the
brink. Pledging a continued hands - off policy in the tiny alliance's political and business affairs, and their troops
to the defense of both worlds, the Blakists earned the support - and, in some cases, fear - of the Terra Firma
population.
Terra Firma has two main continents - Rusalaia the primary continent, and Reniki, the smaller, equatorial
continent to the east. The capital city, Aserlitz, home to the planet's single spaceport, is located on Rusalaia's
northern coast. On Reniki, Ballard-Dukempic Foods of Keid maintains a branch office in the city of Nystoll. A
recovering industry with a history dating back to the glory days of the Star League, the foodstuffs
super-corporation now oversees most of the farming and ranching industries that are once more on the rise in
Reniki's open plains.
