Kaarja

The planet of Kaarja was one of the original off-shoot colonies of Antrixies and the home to the major Landsting family, House Corisso. The world was seen as a rich, well-to-do world within the Antrixian Commonwealth, but it also had a reputation of being snobbish. Despite this perception, the planet was always viewed as one of the more important worlds within the Commonwealth.

Kaarja was dominated by water for the most part, with only two large land masses and various large islands scattered across the world. Considered the "Shining Star" of the Commonwealth, wild grasslands and old mountain ranges dominate the planet's land surfaces. Large oceans and scattered in-land seas provided the planet with ideal conditions for a wide variety of flora and fauna, with mild temperatures year round.

Kaarja was home to House Corisso of the Landsting. Being very egmatic, politically, Kaarja boasted a healthy tourist economy due to Baroness Corisso attempting to bolster her position within the Landsting. It was not uncommon for celebrations over minor things to take place all over the planet. Lavish parties and a busy nightlife kept visitors coming back to Kaarja.

On average, citizens of Kaarja were well educated and extremely involved in the fine arts. While Kaarja did possess a large working class, those individuals from the class were often well-spoken and well-to-do. Even so, Kaarja was very traditional with their architecture and how their towns and cities were laid out. The major exports are the Kaarja wine and Massa Cheese.

During the Imperial occupation, Kaarja was left virtually untouched by the Empire. Partially due to its backing of the Imperials, it was also do to the higher ranking Imperials using Kaarja as a vacation getaway. Kaarja could be said to be more of a pleasure planet than a colony world.
