Novaya III

Novaya III is the third planet of the Novaya system, located in the Novaya Sector and the Homeworld Region. The people of Novaya III is known for their hyper-militarism, military infrastructure and architecture, military-industrial complex and mandatory military services, the latter of which cause civilians to perform military service for 1-3 years in order to receive the right to live in Novaya III.
==Society==
Novaya III is heavily militarized with a civilian-to-soldier ratio of 10:4. Due to the nature of Novaya III, Novayan civilians, whether migrating to or born in Novaya III, will have to perform a mandatory planetary military service for 1-3 years, afterwhich they will receive citizen rights and gain franchise. Novayan children at the age of 10 will be taught basic military training and education, and between the age of 16 and 20 they will be sent to boot camps to begin their training, should they finish with their enrollment in the civilian government quickly. After they served in the Novayan military, they will be given three choices: to pursue an active military career, a military reserve career with civilian jobs ready, or retire as a citizen.
Novaya III, due to its military nature, is permanently under martial law. Policing of the population is handled by the Planetary Defense Force, which is under and answers to a committee of military officers tasked with judicial operations. The planetary government of Novaya III is a military junta with a stratocracy, composed of twenty marshals and headed by a High Marshal. Each marshal represents and leads an autonomous region, which functions similarly as a nation.
The martial theme extends to every aspect of life in Novaya III, to the point the planet itself is given the designation of Fortress World, where it is dominated by planetary defenses, bunkers, strongholds and fortresses, something foreign invasion and civil unrest will have trouble proving difficult. Novaya III is made up of a mixture of heavily-militarized factories, massive fortress and secure bunker complexes, and heavily-defended, well-fortified underground/surface habitation sectors. Measures to prepare for war or to rebuild were already taken: strict rationing, widespread martial law, and a mandatory one child policy, with every available resource put into reconstruction and opportunities only afforded to those whose knowledge and expertise will greatly benefit reconstruction efforts.
