Kayrho

Kayrho itself is mostly covered in savannah, with pockets of oasises and mountains speckled sporadically throughout the planets surface. Due to the proximity of several slip streams The Sea of Tranquility and Kayrho itself has become a dominent trading hub of the galaxys.

While the surface of Kayrho may consist mostly of arid savannahs, under the surface is a thick layer of ocean which extends many miles to a hard surface the covers the planets molten core. This leads to a phenomenon called "shifting" meaning that many of Kayrho's landmarks may change coordinates based on the circumstances under the planets surface. the exception however are the mountainous regions of the planet. These are firmly anchored in place by the mountain's roots, reducing the likelyhood of strong shifting.

The planet's argriculture is rather hardy as a result roots being almost exclusivly the source of water. Above ground plants tend to be hard and rarely much taller than the average Kayrhoian (roughly 5'8) but under water there is an elaborate network of roots that bear edible foodstuffs. When moisture does evaporate into the air the magentic poles of the planet pull it either north of south and pour it back into the surface via sinkholes there. These areas tend to be boggy and unihabited.

A major enterprise on Kayrho is water mining. With the steadily growing population securing water is becoming much more important. The various governments of Kayrho however are not in agreement over the best or safest way to do this and there have been many disagreements and occasionally armed conflict. However with the dawn of the space age it has become apperant that a more unified system of government will be necessary to deal with their problems;domestic and external.
