Stellar Republic of Tupã

Tupã, officially the Stellar Republic of Tupã, is a federal stellar republic of the Coalition of Congressional Republics located in its Periphery. Spanning the Tupã star system, its capital is located in the space colony Saci-1, located in the L2 Lagrange Point of Moñái. Colonization was completed in 2291 as part of the broader mandate of the Terran Species Preservation Initiative, with Tupã chosen for its stellar similarity to Sol, with Moñái in particular having a desirable day length of 24 hours, 35 minutes.
Its most populous world is Tupã Prime, with a population of over 8 billion people. It is comprised of a single planetary republic, the Planetary Republic of Moñái, with a number of devolved continental, sub-continental and regional republics on Refúgio and Tupã Prime. Lehetőség, the most recently colonized world in the system, is managed by a special state-corporate mixed oversight board in collaboration with the United Mineral Consortium. Due to the particularly resource-rich nature of the system, Tupã is a major exporter of raw materials to the rest of the Coalition at large, with the rainforests of Moñái, Tupã Prime, and Refúgio providing a bountiful amount of natural wood and biosynthetic precursors for pharmaceuticals.
Tupã is fairly well-known for a periphery system, both on account of its vast resources, broader tourism initiatives, and its contentious geopolitical situation, with Tupã Prime remaining an ongoing conflict zone. The ongoing Krielander Insurgency and the Anaxian Heresy remaining a precarious burden for Tupanese member republics and the Coalition Forces as a whole. Its second most populous world, Moñái, is a major tourist destination in the broader Coalition, known for its natural beauty and the Moñái Paleozoo.
== Etymology ==
Tupã is named for the eponymous Tupi-Guarani deity, Tupã, who serves the role of a creator god in their mythology. Many of the peoples chosen for the settlement of Tupã Prime and Moñái were themselves indigenous peoples from South America, displaced by the encroachment of urbanization and the broader collapse of Earth's biosphere.
