Background History

Settled in ER 687, Levia serves as the launching platform for FTL ships into deep space. It houses a starbase in orbit and one of the gates that takes ships from the edges of the Levia Star System to the inner planets, such as the capital. Levia is only eighty percent fully colonized, with its surface having only a few small cities and start up towns and villages. Levia is plagued by powerful winds, which have caused the Neshaten to reinforce every structure on the planet but have also prevented them from constructing orbital elevators due to the risk of high winds destroying the tethers.

The planet also serves as the primary training base for military personnel, it is for this reason that it also possess several shipyards that orbit the nearby moon.
