#### Internals

The planet’s internals are not too special, the planet’s core is mostly made up of molten nickel and iron, with amounts of cobalt, copper, and other such minerals. Speaking of which, minerals are of moderate abundance here, the most found ones in the internal regions are aluminum, titanium, phosphorus, and other such minerals. This mineral base, mostly made up of more useful minerals, has made this planet “more minable”. Giving any civilization born here the ability to progress into the space age faster than the Earth. The internal parts of the planet are mostly molten, which is typically for any planet. This molten nature allows the planet to have a robust tectonic system which has created multiple supervolcanoes over its history, and has been able to shift continents, similar to that of the Earth, though a bit faster. There is however one off thing about the planet’s internals like most worlds, a more unique feature, this world’s core is shifted slightly off of where its center would be, meaning that there is a part of the planet which experiences more gravity on average than most other parts. This shift is not well explained, but it is theorized that the reason for this is its binary relation, as it is within a binary with a relatively large object which also happens to be heavy. Though this does not fully explain it, it could be due to other factors as well, either way, it is a cool little detail.

#### Geography

The planet has 5 continents, 4 of them form a large supercontinent that seems to be young enough that it would survive for the next hundred million years. The first continent is also the largest one, whilst its land area is unknown as with most specific things, we do know that it is 2 ¾ times larger than whatever C3 is. This first continent or C1 has the lowest amount of islands total, the islands this cotnient does have are large (small landmasses) islands that stick to the coast, and most of them are located in the northeast. C1 also has over-half of the mountains here. Moving south, we have C2, it is a large flat continent with only a few hills at most. It has hundreds of small islands and islets, and it has a peninsula to the south which is made up of several large islands which are weakly connected to each other via small stripes of land. C2 also has a possible land connection with C5, but it gets flooded most of the time and might not even exist as it could be some odd weather that made it look like there was land there. Moving to the east there is C3, it initially was thought to be an extension of C2, but gained independence after the tectonic plates were more analyzed. C3 has a few mountain ranges, the most western one was formed out of C1s collision with C3, and also has the highest peak on the planet.

This mountain range has a smaller range which goes through the middle of the continent to the far east of C3. In the east exists a large assortment of hills, which own a fragmented coastline made up of thousands of islands and their respective islets, so much so that this continent has the most islands on this planet in total. It even has a sunken bit made up of 2000 islands in the southern seaboard. C3 also has a small “land bridge” with  the next continent, C4. C4 is a more arid land, it has more hills but also more bodies of water in it. It has a salty-dry south which has plenty of small islands, so many infact that it is very close to being the continent with the most islands on this planet, only a few hundred behind C3. Most of the islands exist in the southern coast, some of them so close that they were not even distinguishable from eachother. C4 also has a land connection to C1 in the form of a colder landbridge that has almost no life of its own. Next to the south, crossing a volcanic sea is C5, the final continent.C5 is mostly just a very large swamp, it has almost no hills, and all of it is a bogey rainforest that has almost no islands, so less so that the island count around this continent is numbered within the 10s, around ~70 islands counted total around this continent, with there being only a few hundred small sandbanks that exist here.

#### Climate

The planet here has a pretty humid climate, most of the planet is made up of large rainforests, and these rainforests are noted for being humid enough that walking through them would be insufferable for any normal Human. The climate here even though generally humid has plenty of drier regions, interestingly enough this planet has plenty of fully arid salt pans, enough that they outnumber the amount of deserts here. The planet’s rainforests typically take up the internal parts of the continents, and in addition to that, they also take up most of the finer coastal regions. The climates of C3, C1, and most of C2 are tropical, but C4 as mentioned previously is more arid. This could be seen in the large salt pan here, it runs from the southern coastline, with all of its salty winds, and stretches to the landbridge with C1, where it transitions into a semi-arid landscape. This semi-arid landscape is mostly orangish in its atmosphere, as that is from the kicked-up dirt from the exposed ground, which is not that rooted into place by any large trees or other plants. This climate is also more susceptible to flooding, speaking of which, this world despite the amount of water here, is more rainy on average than on the Earth, and this could also explain the rainforests here. There is also another climate zone, the traditional desert, most of this planet's arid deserts exist in the border regions of C2 and C1, a bay region surrounded by large mountains and hills, and vast miles of dunes.

### Moons (1)

This planet has one moon, and is in a binary with said moon. This moon has a goldish color, which is interrupted by the several canyons, mountains, and large craters, which act as basins which collect dust. The moon even has its own atmosphere, though this one is limited and is not enough to breathe in if only its contents were changed. Several small volcanoes and mountains have been observed here, indicating that this world has or at least had its own set of tectonic plates.

### Star System

This star system is a generally warm one, it orbits a yellow dwarf (G7.7 V), with over half of the planet being hot enough that they glow in heat, the other half of the system is warm / temperate, with this world being the last one. The system has an Oort cloud and an asteroid belt.
