Antethia - Breathable mix - temperate - human-miscible biosheres - millions of inhabitants - tech level 4 - civil war - Regional Hegemon.
Antethia is a earth-like planet that controls the entire Herdis system (hex 405). The planet and sector is controlled by the Antethian Hegemon, a republic government which elects a ruling council to create and adapt laws. The council also elects from among themselves, two consuls which control great military power. Each of the other two colony planets of the Herdis system also have a governor appointed by the ruling council. Each of these Governors enjoys a great amount of independance, and is allowed to have a standing military presence.
Antethia has three major continents and enjoys a wide variety of industries, however it is lacking in mineral deposits compared to the average world. Currently Antethia is under a great political strife, as the great consul and general Otho Servius has declared himself "The People's Consul," and denounced the current ruling council has being both corrupt and for only serving the nobles, and the corporations. Otho has enjoyed a massive amount of public support from the lower and middle class, and now has full control of the westernmost continent of Monso. The ruling council and the remaining consul Thracius Hial remain control over the remaining two continents and the other system governments still answer to Thracius, however many fear that with the current instability, that the off-world colonies might turn rogue.
In general, most experts believe that Otho has an edge militarily and with public opinion, while Thracius and the council enjoy better the better supplied regions, and have a massive advantage in financial strength. Currently the civil war has been bloodless, and very little of the Hegemon's industry has been disrupted. The entire Hegemon stands balanced on the edge of the a knife.
