Flood

__NOTOC__
Flood is a planet in the Unukalhai system. It is initially controlled by the Republic, but it becomes part of the Free Worlds when they declare independence.
== Description ==
The scenic fjords and rugged mountains make Flood a popular tourist destination. Nearly all the land in the planet's temperate zone is covered in mountains, making traditional agriculture difficult.
The locals subsist mainly on sheep and goats, plus a few native species, and grow fruit and vegetables in small terrace gardens tended by hand rather than by tractor. Most of the population is employed in the tourism industry, running inns for the visitors to their quaint mountainside villages, or making handcrafts for sale as gifts.
== Spaceport ==
You have never seen this many shops in a single spaceport. Hand-glazed pottery, wooden furniture, dolls, sweaters, scarves, paintings - the variety is overwhelming. Crowds of tourists bustle around from shop to shop, making it very difficult for you to get through.
This mountainside spaceport is designed to look like a village, except that in place of terrace gardens are landing pads (placed haphazardly to look more natural), and the buildings are much larger than you imagine huts in the villages are. The concrete tiles covering the roofs have been molded and colored to look like wood shingles, and although some of the larger buildings must have steel structures underneath, they have been made to look as if they are held up only by wooden beams.
