Ganymede

Ganymede, or Jupiter III, is the largest moon in the Sol System and the third closest moon in orbit around Jupiter. In 2063, Ganymede was colonized by humanity with several hydroponic domes across its surface. Forty years later after being terraformed, Ganymede has become a major agriculture center throughout Sol and the inner colonies.
Today, as per the latest census conducted in 2720, Ganymede has an estimated population of 5 million inhabitants. The majority of these individuals reside in the capital city of Ganymede City, and Frontierville. The fertile lands of Ganymede have allowed for the cultivation of a diverse range of crops, supporting both local consumption and export to neighboring colonies. Its strategic location within Sol has facilitated efficient distribution networks, ensuring that the agricultural produce reaches its intended destinations promptly and efficiently.
However, Ganymede was a major player in the Jovian Conflict of 2687, in which it, alongside the colonies of Titan, Io, Enceladus, and Europa waged a four year civil war for independence from UNF governance. Regrettably, Ganymede and the other colonies lost the war, and while Ganymede was denied independence, the UNF did agree to allow Ganymede to have more say in how the colony is governed.
