Datum

Datum would traditionally be considered to be the most important system in the Zambarau Concord, but is actually quite sparsely populated due to the nature of the Zambarau. It's hard to conduct a diplomatic discussion with an associate when by landing on the planet you are effectively inside your associate (which usually stimulates an appropriate 'immune response' from the planetary environment). Datum is notable, however, for the strange projects and works of art produced by the Zambarau, on planets and in space.
Datum is a yellow main sequence star in the approximate centre of the Zambarau Concord. Less than a million kilometres from Datum is a group of large, white-hot, rocky planetoids, named the Sentinels; solettas near the Sentinels direct focussed sunlight toward colonies in the outer system for sunlight, heat and energy. At 70 million kilometres is the planet Datum, the homeworld of the Zambarau; Datum actually has a very low non-Zambarau population due to its dangerous environment, and most live in space habitats in orbit or dotted around the system. After Datum comes the wide Rift asteroid belt which stretches for all the way from 120 million to approximately 2.5 billion kilometres. Finally, there is a sparse region of cold, blue-white gas giants orbiting far from the sun. Deep within one of these gas giants there is known to be a small religious order of Kakranukh (who sometimes travel to one of the other gas giants to be alone). These gas giants have no moons or rings due to the violent gravitational interaction between them in the formation of the solar system, which also cleared any asteriods in the area into either the Rift or the Oort cloud.
