Terra is considered a "super earth" due to its size and environmental similarities to Earth, the name Terra was chosen because of those naturally existing similarities. Such as an oxygen-based atmosphere, indigenous vegetation, vast oceans, and temperate climates.
Terra is the center of operations for the UEE's Eastern Expansion Program and a trade hub due to its five jump points, it is believed that a sixth one may exist. During the planets initial exploration, "arranged" rocks were found in the deep southern region, but no subsequent intelligent life.[1]
“ | Upon discovery, this naturally-occuring oxygen-based planet seemed like an untouched Earth and so they named it Terra as a reflection for the birthplace of Humanity. Over the centuries, Terra has grown into one of the jewels of the Empire, becoming a political and cultural force. Home to the Transitionalist political movement who believe that Terra better represents the future of the UEE than the current capital, Earth. | ” |
