Kalevala is almost entirely composed of deserts, with the occasional mountain dotting the landscape. The inhabitants of this planet struggle to survive, requiring food and other necessities to be shipped in from off-planet sources. Like many other desert worlds, moisture farming is a common industry and moisture farms can be found dotting the planet at random intervals. However, this focus on farming historically made urban centers few and far between. During the past decades, the planet's economy and population have grown into a bustling ecumenopolis.
