New Jericho

New Jericho is one of the oldest worlds under the Musura Federation, and has some of the closest ties to Zooma's World in particular. It is a highly pious planet all around, with many High Saints of the Oracles being originated from the Temples of Jericho.   The planet is another one of the major breadbaskets of the entire Federation, being closely tied to the Spicer Guilds. New Jericho is home to the largest Seerist temple in the Terminus Systems, and is home to millions of dedicated servants of the Seerist power structures. Many of New Jericho's governmental positions are directly under the control of the Seerist Oracles. This has caused some political friction amongst the more progressive workers' movements in the Federation. These protests and riots are usually quelled by Seerist warriors. The Order of the Candle maintains its largest library here, which rivals that of Beacon or Temple. Millions of pilgrims make the trek to New Jericho, seeking the answers that could be hidden within.   

The Planet of Plenty

  New Jericho's surface is almost 85% made up of rich farmland, and the planet is four times the size of Earth. Trillions of souls lived in the condensed urban structures, regularly commuting on one of the planet's many maglevs, bringing them to one of the Agri-Harvester networks where they usually work. Four in Ten citizens of the planet work for some kind of agricultural industry, and the planet is thought to provide almost 35% of the entire food consumed in the Musura Federation.   In particular, Jericho Wine is a luxury good famous throughout the Mid Rim, and Jericho brandy is supposedly even drank in the speakeasies and Zlathan bars in the Core Systems. Most of the famous Zlathan Silk is produced and manufactured on New Jericho.
