Planet: Horos III
Table of Contents [hide]

This planet is entirely covered in humid, dense jungles, with temperatures reaching up to fifty-three degrees Celsius thanks to its close proximity to the sun. The plant life is extremely hardy and adaptable, being highly resistant to the large amounts of solar radiation that is generated by the nearby star. It has an axial inclination of thirty-one degrees and a sidereal orbital period of just over a hundred and ninety-one days, with a day lasting a mere nine hours.

It is home to many different life forms, not least the native Filvians, who are at an information age level of technology, though did not develop space capable craft of any kind until they came into contact with the Old Republic. They were first contacted by the Old Republic over a century ago when the exploration craft landed amidst the steamy jungle's undergrowth and was greeted by many Filvians from a nearby city. They were extremely curious to know about life beyond their planet, welcoming the Corellian explorers with open arms. The Old Republic set up an embassy in the main Filvian city and agreed to share their medical and space technology with the Filvians in exchange for their knowledge on subspace radio communications, which were far superior to anything the Republic currently used. There are quite a few cities on the planet, though many of these are located far from the equator to escape the worst parts of the planet’s humid, thick jungles, although thankfully the short day leaves the heat just about bearable for offworlders.

The Aqualish have largely left the planet alone, as the temperatures on the surface are far too hot for their liking, and with no large bodies of water on the planet beyond the small rivers and streams. They instead concentrated their efforts at exploration and conquest elsewhere in the sector, leaving the Filvians largely to their own devices, as did the Empire when they arrived later, showing no great interest in the planet. Eventually, after the Falleen Federation set up a base on Ando, they made contact with the Filvians and agreements were signed allowing the Filvians to continue governing their world autonomously.
