Geography

  • Grassland (area: 174K mi2)
  • Taiga (area: 125K mi2)
  • Wetland (area: 90K mi2)
  • Temerate Deciduous Forest (area: 108K mi2)

  • Tundra (area: 22K mi2)
  • Mountains (rough area of 105K mi2)
  • Total Land Area: 905K mi2

Ecosystem

Each geographic feature (biome) has its own distinct ecosystem. Each ecosystem is similiar, if not exactly like, to Earth's ecosystem. This includes flora, fauna, and everything that makes up the ecosystem to keep it in balance.   Humans, for the most part, have kept a good balance with the ecosystem they live in. The only times that this balance was truly disrupted by them was during the Industrial Era, the Space Era and the Era of War and Reversions. But balance began to be restored near the end of this last era. By the Apocalypse Shadows Era balance was restored because Humans had reverted to an almost pre-industrial time. And what remained of the Industiral side of things has been engineered to be good for the planet.

Ecosystem Cycles

Same as Earth.

Climate

Depends on which location one lives at. Cold Desert is going to have colder temperature and more snow than a tropical rainforest. The high up one is in the mountains will effect the climate one has to deal with.   Overall, climate is the same as Earth. Though by the Apocalypse Shadows Era global warming has reversed itself to the point that it looks like the ozone has almost completely healed itself. For the most part, each area has a stable climate year. Any deviances from this will be marked in the appropriate area.

Fauna & Flora

Same as Earth's just with different names. View the Flora and Fauna articles for more information.

Natural Resources

Same as Earth's.   Things like wood from the forests, stone, gems and other natural resources from mountains and the crust, grain from agriculture, and meat from wild and domesticated fauna.

History

Population: 26.3m   This planet was made by Infinite Grace and inhabitated by the humans it saved from Earth.   With it being slightly larger than Earth, Humans have been able to grow to a higher population size.

In the World Meta for Caelum Prime, if I recall correctly, you mentioned that you are writing a novel based on Caelum Prime. Are you actively writing? When might it be published?

Jan 3, 2024 06:12 by Lady Wynter

I have a draft. I'm expanding on what little worldbuilding I have so I can improve what I wrote. I don't have a currently date for publishing but I'm hoping summer. Earlier if I can manage. It will depend on how long it takes me to complete everything.
