Chandrila

:This page is wholly my creation. -- Ksar
An idyllic world close to the frontier with the Outer Rim Territories, Chandrila is inhabited by humans of Alderaanian stock. Chandrila's surface consists of lakes, rolling plains and green hills. Its population centers are beautiful -- Chandrila's river cities are filled with classical architecture and greenery.
==Government==
The Most Serene Subrepublic of Chandrila is a representative democracy, despite maintaining the trappings of monarchy. The planet's chief of state and head of government is the Prince or Princess, styled Serene Highness. The legislature is a three-person High Council. A single Justice serves on the High Court. Chandrila is represented on Coruscant by a Senator who traditionally aligns with the Senator of Alderaan.
All high officials of the Chandrilan government are elected by a sixty-percent supermajority of the registered electorate.
==Culture==
:"Court life 'passes in a sort of ballet', with precise ceremonies prescribed for every occasion, to show that 'power could be exercised in harmony and order', and 'Chandrila could thus reflect the motion of the Universe as it is bound by the Force.'"
==Economy==
Chandrila's economy is primarily based on the export of its well-educated workforce and the remittances those workers send back to the homeworld. Due to steady emigration, low immigration, and excellent environmental stewardship, Chandrila is self-sufficient in food production. Premium Chandrilan foodstuffs are in-demand throughout the Core.
==History==
When Alderaan was colonized by members of the ancient houses of Coruscant, the overflow was shunted to Chandrila. For the first few millennia, Chandrila was a colony of Alderaan. During the foundation of the Republic, Chandrila was spun off so that Alderaan might control another vote in the Senate, a gambit that has paid off handsomely for a thousand generations.
