Sinoa

Sinoa is the heart of manufacturing and technological development in the Six Worlds region.   Although Uros has the largest ports and cities Sinoa keeps this region profitable for the Collective.   Description The parent star is a mid-cycle yellow star, part of a binary system with a brown dwarf. The system includes three gas giants, Sinoa, four dwarf planets, two debris rings, and dozens of moons. Slightly smaller than Earth Sinoa has a diverse ecosystem with most indigenous life being similar to those found in Sol-System. Slight atmospheric differences were accounted for before the establishment of the colony. Its native flora and fauna were impacted but no mass extinctions took place. There wasn’t an advanced native culture so no resettlement protocols were necessary for colonization. The chemical and mineral diversity in the system mirrors that of Sol-System making it the anchor colony for manufacturing. This also makes the system a perfect target for piracy. Sinoa has massive oceans covering 94% of its surface. The landmass of the planet consists of two large continents in the opposing polar regions, a mid-sized continent in the northern hemisphere, and the remaining landmass comprised of island chains scattered over the surface of the planet.   People The population is diverse but does have a large majority of people from ancient Pan-Pacific and Asian cultures. Colonists are referred to as Sinoan or in a more derogatory manner, Atlanteans.

  Faiths and Legends   Religions on the colony are as diverse as its population. In recent years there has been a resurgence of two ancient faiths, Buddhism, and Shinto but any and all known faiths are welcome on Sinoa.   There is a widespread myth that a virus of alien origin has begun spreading. According to the myth those infected are “changed” and are communicating with an alien race from the distant past. Most colonists and traders discount this story, but in the last three years it has gained more believers than ever before.
