==Overview==
Halvden is a Human colonial planet that at the time of the 2410's was located near the edge of NEFS -controlled space in SECTOR 6 of the Outer Colonies. It has the distinction of being the first Human planet to be overrun during the Human-Frielaedian War. A moderately important mining and agriculture planet, it has intermediate amounts of CJA and NEFSDF forces deployed in-system.
==Geography==
Halvden's land is roughly evenly divided between two primary continents, Congand and Gondelle, which comprise nearly all of the planet's land surface area. Three large oceans cover the rest of the planet (excluding polar ice caps). Congand is much more volcanic and seismically active than Gondelle, and the famous volcano Driver Peak, located on Congand, is the highest point on Halvden's surface.
==Infrastructure==
Most of Halvden's population inhabits the less volcanic and more fertile continent of Gondelle, with approximately 6,365,000 people, or about 63% percent of the total population living on the continent. Furthermore, about half of the 6,365,000 people living on Gondelle inhabit areas within a 300-mile radius of the capital city, Manetu. The primary means of connection between incredibly remote towns on both continents is an efficient system of Mag-lev bullet trains.
==Economy==
Most of Halvden's economy is based around exportation. Halvden is one of the two primary Human sources of the element Osmium, found in large, pure veins primarily around the Driver Caldera on Congand. Most industrial space traffic is based out of Halvden's third-largest city, Santo Rodrigo, as it is the largest city on Congand and closest to the Osmium mines. However, most commercial, civilian, and military traffic is based out of Halvden's largest and most infuential city, Manetu , which serves as the seat for the Planet's local governing branch of both the NEFS and the CJA.
