Bear Person

Bear People are a species within the bear genus consisting of numerous different sub-species; brown bear people, black bear people and polar bear people. Note that Panda people are a seperate species.

Today, Bear people are well-integrated into society and live among humans. There are entire communities and areas within cities named after and primarily inhabited by bears, there are also many famous bears such as Bronson Johnson, the basketballer, Henry Hiend, the physicist and F.B Crunk, the gangster.

Bear People tend to require more food, daily, than humans, and eat comparatively more meat or quasi-meat products.

Some bear people live in the wild among other bears, as they are quite capable of doing, and some live in communities in the wild.

## Origins

It is not entirely clear how bearopods as a family came to Ficko, however they are classed under the 'cosmologin' order, as they are believed to be extra-Fickolean and originate from other places, for instance the result of Super bears coming to Ficko.
'Happy Neurotransmitter Family'

The Happy Neurotransmitter Family is a Fickolean neuropsychological concept that outlines and explains happiness as a product of numerous neurotransmitters and hormones, including serotonin, dopamine, and carenzine. It is part of the Fickolean psychological concept of 'Neurotransmitter Families' corresponding to different emotions.

It is scientifically proven that the production and reception of the hormones and neurotransmitters within this 'family' can be manipulated, to produce what Fickolean psychologists call 'artificial happy times'. Most psychoactive substances affect the happy neurotransmitter family, including pillowchubb, big-prump and rofpile.

## Neurotransmitters and Hormones

There are many neurotransmitters and hormones that make up the Happy Neurotransmitter Family, informally, as they have been observed to have the effect of euphoria and relaxation.

### **Carenzine**

Carenzine is a neurotransmitter that produces euphoric, 'happy' feelings of desirability, elation and excitement. It is an excitatory neuron.
Dimensional Levels

**Dimensional Levels** is a term used to describe the validated '**Theory of Other Dimensions**' proposed by Chardrin and Stupenda in the late 16th century (Mt). 'Dimensional Levels' describes the **plurality of dimensions** across the omniverse, a term used for those that distinguish between our 'Universe' and other dimensions. Typically, dimensions are considered to be part of our 'Universe', with the current reality we exist in, exclusive of 'other dimensions', being referred to as 'the base dimension'.

## Explanation

The plurality of dimensions in the Universe/Omniverse can be explained in terms of paper: Our 'base dimension' or Universe, is a sheet of thick paper. Assume that the 3-dimensional universe is condensed into a 2-dimensional drawing. With this assumption, we can consider other dimensions to be layers of tracing paper, through which the original thick paper of our universe is visible, but which can add or cover certain features, and even manipulate distances and areas of the universe.

### Types of Dimensions

There are various types of dimensions, stratified into 'levels of dimensions' depending on their accessibility and similarity to our own base dimension.

## History

The 'Theory of Other Dimensions' was first proposed by any KC citizen (during the time of citizenship) in 1598 (Mt), by Gavrillo Chardrin and Meg Stupenda, two Apporrossian scientists and cosmologists who claimed the existence of such dimensions based on the fact that they had reportedly travelled through wormhole-portals before, and believed their travels to rely on the existence of an 'underneath-universe', which would allow them to quickly travel trillions of kilometres without passing through any object.

It was developed in 1681 (Mt) for the purpose of interdimensional and transdimensional travel, which was later refined to wormhole-travel, which is commonly used today to travel between star systems.

They have a combined explosive yield of 54kt, 4.5kt on average.

ExY = Explosive Yield in tonnes of TNT

Average and Overall ExY are estimates.
Dragons of Evancya

Dragons have roamed the skies of Evancya since life began on the planet. They are an ancient and still fairly mysterious species, having once dominated the skies and terrorised those who dare disturb them. However, their role in the modern Evancya is now but a shadow of their former lives as the invention and popularisation of atmospheric and space flight has rendered them as yet another species to be domesticated by the force of technology. Now, the dragon is a protected species and their mountain homes are guarded under the 'Natural Preservation Edict' of 102 AGA.

## Domestic Dragons

There are many domesticated dragons within Evancya, mainly kept as pets by very wealthy individuals and used as methods of transportation by some. The most notable of these would be Emperor Talbuth IIs current dragons: Mal'tuk and Pergi who act as the drivers for his flying chariot and are his pride and joy, it is said they are very close friends with his children and will protect the Royal Family to the death.
Emma Rosemary

Emma Rosemary is a very sucessful Crashian actor born in 1982

## Personal Life

Emma was born to Robert (Bob) and Lisa Rosemary in 1982, South Mac, Crash. She had a sister, who was born 3 years after (1985) and from a young age had a great passion for acting. Her and her sister would perform plays that were written by Robert Rosemary, who was a sucessful play-write.

At age 11, Emma was accepted into a acting acadamy in Mac and began her life as leading lady parts in big shows performed by her school. At age 18 she performed 'Bulb' at Horseshoe theatre in front of paying audience members, amongst them was an agent, who approached her parents about being an agent for their daughter. Emma's agent was soon able to find her several interviews, one of which included a guest spot on an episode of Mister Who, but the most significant was a role as a villian in what was planned to be a franchise, Harpy. Emma auditioned for the part of Julius Henfrack in Harpy and got the call back, she was cast in the film and a few months later she her future husband, Chuck Sizeler requests that she play the female-lead in his distopian romance.

It was indeed on the set of 'Under the Wrong Name' where Emma Rosemary and Chuck Sizeler met for the first time, Chuck would go on to contact Emma after the shooting of the film wrapped and 6 years later they were married, although their relationship was screwtinised for the age difference between them, a pretty hefty 7 year gap, especially considering how young Emma Rosemary was when the relationship began. The set of Under the Wrong Name was also where Rosemary met her co-star Harry Mckelley who she would go onto forming a very close friendship and making more films with (including the Harpy franchise, where Mckelley was not introduced until the 3rd installment). Soon after, filming for the rest of the Harpy series was green-lit and Rosemary's career had got a solid footing.

Big Giant has numerous subsidiaries for the different planets of operation, including Ficko, Apporross, Crash, Biackaar and Gon, also owning several associated research companies such as Maja-Pharma and Gluesco Giant.

In 1941 (Mt), Big Giant was made a public limited company with 56% of stocks available, under the leadership of David Shrane, though a 44% stake was kept by the government by decision of a special committee on pharmaceuticals in the Mennings government that feared the 'drug problem' would become 'out of hand' if not controlled. In reality, the government lost all control of drug trade in Ficko.

In 2019 (Mt), Big Giant bought up an estimated 20% of the antidepressant market in Crash by buying licenses to sell in major pharmacies across Crash, and outbidding suppliers for several pharmaceutical supply companies.

It is the second most populous country in Everbon, and the fourth most populous country in Ficko, with 3.8 billion people, accounting for 10.5% of the total population of Ficko, and with a size of 419 million km^2, accounting for 3.52% of Fickolean land.

## Government

### Position in Planetary Government

In the Fickolean senate, Dongas contributes 401 senators to the Fickolean Senate. Like all other countries, it must adhere to planetary rules and laws, however Dongas, specifically the region of Brandon, is well known for lobbying to relax these laws, and operate on the outer bounds of tax laws, employing the most lenient tax laws of corporations.

### National Executive

The Dongan National Executive is made up of the Dongan National Parliament, and led by the President of Dongas, who leads the largest party. There can often be more than one president, if no party has a majority in the DNP.
Fightership Spaceship Class

In the spaceforce, a Fightership is a spaceship designed for spaceship warfare against other spacecraft. They are usually light, carrying few people, fast, and firing missiles, lasers and machine guns.

### Atmospheric Fightership

Atmospheric Fighterships are small spaceships typically carrying 1-2 people usually, capable of entering a planetary atmosphere and acting as a fighterjet, as well as acting in space combat against other fighterships.

### Space Fightership

Space Figherships are much like Atmospheric Fighterships, carrying 1-2 people, however they tend to travel faster, and are more specialised to fighting in space rather than in planetary atmospheres. These are usually one of the most common spacecrafts in the spaceforce.

### Deep-Space Fightership

These spaceships typically carry 1-5 crew members, and travel in deep space for long distances. They are capable of more long range attacks, and they are capable of creating wormholes when in groups, through which they can travel.

### Patroller Drone

Patroller Drones are totally uncrewed spaceships which tend to be smaller and usually detach from larger ships. They tend to have very limited fuel capacity, and are used to eliminate small threats.
Mercenários

Os mercenários são soldados de aluguel. Eles podem ser contratados por qualquer um, desde que pague a quantia correta. Mercenários não costumam andar sozinhos, sendo a todo o momento acompanhados por outros da mesma profissão. Isso acabou criando várias guildas que se espalham por Ayrlia, muitas vezes sendo chamados para apoiar os pequenos exércitos das menores cidades do continente durante desentendimentos dentro dos reinos

A maioria dos mercenários são ex-soldados que participaram da Guerra Arcana, a qual formou mais homens e mulheres para o combate do que as cidades capital podiam comportar..

O que difere os mercenários dos corvos é o seu código de conduta, o qual os mercenários não possuem. Além disso, nenhum grupo de mercenários é especializado em eliminar monstros, devendo essa tarefa ser realizada por profissionais. Os corvos, no entanto, são comumente colocados como uma guilda de soldados de aluguel que prefere não andar junta.

## Guildas

Há poucas guildas apresentadas no momento, são elas:

- Dragões

- Kobolds

2060 Schoosh Party Candidacy Election

2060 (2020, Mt) Schoosh Party Candidacy Election

* Grindelvald (dropped out)
* Narni Zuflé (dropped out)
* Flowerpot Robinson (arrested)
* Fiddlestock Wilson (died)
* Miranda Cockell (dropped out)
* Piper Snootville (dropped out)

## Result

As polls accurately predicted, as well as numerous political pundits, Baxter Knightwood won a large victory and will go on to be the candidate for the Schoosh Party in the 2060 Presidential Election.

## Background

### Pre-Debate Stage

Initially, hundreds of candidates registered as candidates, however the vast majority of these candidates dropped out within days, after realising how over-saturated the candidacy was. A large part of the reason for this was to avoid a situation akin to the 2050 Fickolean Schoosh Party Candidacy Election, during which over 40 candidates were in the debate and around 30 on the final ballot.

Within a week, Piper Snootville dropped out of the race, as one of the 10 remaining candidates, she said "there is not enough room for my everyone's voice to be heard, that's why we choose who we want to speak for us", she also endorsed Nicola Vertrise "I believe the person most entitled to speak for me and the Schoosh party in general is the powerful ms Vertrise". Days later, Miranda Cockell, who had shown similar campaign promises, dropped out without explicitly giving a reason or an endorsement. She appeared on at a 'Election Covention' Event in Alifca City 6 days later, during which she said that "Someone like Knightwood is seen by everyone as a shu-in for the candidacy. That doesn't have to be true, we can have people with policies that are more realistic and more cooperative."

### Post-Debate

The Schoosh party debate polls opened just hours after the debate had finished, and showed Baxter Knightwood as the clear winner of the debate (31.6%), followed by Narni Zuflé (28.8%) closely behind, with Nicola Vertrise (23.4%) doing better than expected according to pre-debate prospective polls. Jacq Whynil also did better than was expected of her, with Vertrise having called her "A rich, entitled woman who will surely find herself surrounded by an unfamiliar level of opposition and hostility". Grindelvald (1.0%) and Flowerpot Robinson (0.2%) trailed far behind.

Narni Zuflé went on to drop out days later, citing 'difficult and stressful times due to intrusive investigations and public witch-hunting', endorsing Baxter Knightwood.

After being taken ill at the Sanc Marie hospital in Knapel City, Ficko City, Flowerpot Robinson continued his campaign and was present at the Schoosh debate. Days after the debate, Robinson's ranch in rural south middle Alifca was raided and 300kg of unlicensed pillowchubb seized. He was subsequently arrested and is now on bail. Days after this, Grindelvald dropped out of the race to defend Robinson in his upcoming trial.
Dragões

Os dragões são mercenários que usam armaduras pesadas e lanças, uma combinação pouco comum, mas que para eles funciona. São menos de dez os integrantes dessa guilda, visto que seu treinamento árduo forma poucos alunos. Há boatos de que os dragões treinam baseados nas histórias sobre um assassino de feras dracônicas famoso na ficção, mas obra da mente de um romancista do primeiro século.
1993 Tap Party Candidacy Election

**1993 (1953, Mt) Tap Party Candidacy Election**
 20.25%

* Bobert Hargreaves (dropped out)
* Ruth Handsdown (died)

## Result

Terry McGire became the Tap Party candidate as well as the leader of the party, as both elections were rolled into one at the time. He won by a significant percentage, edging out Bolive Bondin and Rob Icke. McGire's victory has been attributed to his charisma and charm, even though he lacked clear policy decisions. He promised to continue Trampson's policies and 'unite the party, and the UFP'. Icke was criticised for being too interventionist, and supporting a change of direction from Trampson, navigating into a world of 'Fickolean Interstellar Intervention', which ultimately gained him some support, but not enough to win the nomination. Bondin, heralding himself as the most obvious successor to Trampson as Trampson's own protege, was widely considered too young, and was also held accountable for mistakes made during Trampson's administration.

## Course of Events

Bobert Hagreaves, Trampson's Economic Chancellor, originally sought the nomination, but dropped out after a disastrous speech in which he kept accidentally referring to the former-UFP as the 'Fardin Guard', as well as forgetting Bolive Bondin's name, and also forgetting the Presidency of Harvey Rollop (he said, "We went from Marie Mennings, to a very quick change of pace with Graham"). Furthermore, critics suggested he exaggerated his relationship with Graham Trampson, as Vice President Bolive Bondin suggested the two were not especially close. Lastly, following the first debate, co-debaters complained of a smell coming from his area. Tabloids reported that he had defecated in fear of his competition or nervousness. He subsequently dropped out 3 days later.

Ruth Handsdown, a socialist Yove-era politician and campaigner for minority species' rights, started her candidacy campaign with strong approval, supporting a more interventionist approach and, similarly to Icke, an approach of 'Interstellar Policing'. Handsdown warned 'a threat loomed', but was partly seen as too aggressive, and in favour of 'excessive' military spending policies. Handsdown died after the first debate, 3 days after Hagreaves dropped out.
Dolly Ho-Dayo

**Dolly Bitton Ho-Dayo** is a Fickolean politician, singer, actress and writer and an advocate for equal rights and non-interventionism. She is a minister for the Bandi party in the Fickolean parliament as of 2010 (Mt).

Ho-Dayo was born in 1972 (Mt) to farmers in rural Alifca. She became a successful musician after performing several live shows at farmers' conventions. In 1988 (Mt), she starred in *The Little Driver,* which made her something of a household name. Over the next decade, she released two albums *"Little Driver Songs"* (1990, Mt), and *"Ho-Dayo Rodeo"* (1993, Mt), and starred in several other films, mostly small roles. During this time, she gained a reputation as the "Girl next door", also called "Beautiful Dolly". Her songs *"Don't Meddle With Me"* and *Deep Into the Night* were particularly successful, and single-handedly fuelled her career success.

In 1995 (Mt), Ho-Dayo began to pursue a political career, having conducted charity work in the years before, and joining the Bandi party in 1992 (Mt). She ran as a representative in her home district of Mobilloya and did not win. Despite her party alignment, she endorsed Drankli Panda's re-election campaign in 1998 (Mt), winning the local election for representative that year. In the years afterwards, however, she criticised Drankli's intervention in the Warhammer-Nansive Conflict, and advocated for a 'pacifistic state'. She also advocated for lower taxes and decreased economic interventionism.

In 2003 (Mt), Ho-Dayo ran as a Bandi senator for West Jobson and won. During this time she campaigned and pledged to support equal rights, and to fund projects in poor areas of ogres. She also encouraged integration, and made frequent visits to ogre-dominated areas in the towns of Garro and Los Preggos, where she bought a house. She won two consecutive senatoral elections and retained a great deal of popularity in her area state, earning the nickname 'Honest Ho-Dayo'.

In 2010 (Mt), Ho-Dayo was appointed by the Bandi Party as a minister, unofficially the shadow minister for Education for the Bandi party from 2010-2016. To this end, she resigned as Senator. She became close personal friends with Ajed Roberts, who considered her as a party deputy.

**Brown & Chic** is an Aranci interstellar technology conglomerate specialising in computer solutions and high demand capacity space servers capable of hosting virtual reality platforms, streaming services, and military intelligence. Brown & Chic is one of the largest technology companies in Arancie.

Brown & Chic was founded by Boothy Brown and Basil Chic in 1984 (Mt), due to the innovations of its founders in creating new AI GPS auto-navigating technology. After patenting their technology, they collectively founded the company which built and supplied GPS cores to car and spaceship manufacturers. Their work was hailed as one of the first 'universal GPS' systems, though it wasn't infallible. Over the following years the two branched out their technology into AI cores and processors alongside AI auto-navigation software, which became particularly vital after they landed their first military contracts in the early 1990s (Mt). With the additional funds, Brown & Chic purchased and subsequently developed a patent for advanced server storage. They invested heavily in R&D into high-demand servers and had numerous breakthroughs. The technology was initially military and government-focused. It was used by government services until 2005 (Mt), and continues to be used by the Aranci military for various purposes. As well as this, their advanced server technology and server management allowed them to host online worlds for video game developers, and have been used intermittently by various internet services, games develepors, virtual-reality companies, and other tech companies. Their services are currently used by over 100 foreign companies, and this product has given them the ability to branch out into many other technologies.

Brown & Chic's business model, since crossing the [sq]1trillion valuation in 2001 (Mt), has been to acquire startups and develop promising technological innovations into product lines, including home appliances, personal technologies and computing, AI and language-based solution models, cars and automotive softwares, spaceship interfaces, music and recording equipment, home solutions and many more.

Today, Brown & Chic has a market valuation of almost [sq]11trillion, with ambitions of entering the mediasphere. The Brown and Chic families have maintained joint majority control of the company since its inception, with an increasingly large public offering, now up to 40%. In 2018 (Mt) their collective share dipped just below a majority, though limited support is required for them to make executive changes. Together, with 29% and 20.4% respectively, they have a 49.4% stake in the company. Brown & Chic has its fingers in many bums; they own a 23% stake in the Juplockitan tech firm, Pietro Corporation, as well as ownership of Butchhold Appliances, Gape-Bung Televisual Services, Slapsack IT Solutions, Brounhole Inc, etc.
Fickolean Spaceforce

The **Fickolean Spaceforce** is the largest and most well-funded branch of the Fickolean Military, with a 2020 (Mt) budget of over [sq]60trillion.

The spaceforce operates throughout the KC, with numerous space-bases, and thousands of units roaming the area.

The Fickolean Spaceforce is also among the most pioneering and technologically advanced space-forces in the KC, second only, perhaps, to the Evancyan Cosmonavy. With spaceships such as the Prism-Bird variety of Prism-Ships, and the Buffalo Shabo A1-A3, it pioneers modern spaceforce technology with extremely high speed spaceships capable of spaceflight and sub-atmospheric flight.
Carenzine

Carenzine is a neurotransmitter and part of the 'happy neurotransmitter family', one of numerous neurotransmitter families common in the brains of individuals in the KC, particularly humans. Carenzine is more common in some species, and less common in others.

The following is a table including a number of species and how much carenzine their brains produce given the same stimulus as a percentage of the average Fickolean human's carenzine production.

 (Biackaarian) human
 Spe Humanoid
 Ogre
 Anteem People
 Micro-persons

The effect and purpose of Carenzine is stabilising the production of other neurotransmitters in the brain, such as dopamine and serotonin, as part of the reward system of the brain. It also produces a feeling of pride and satisfaction in an individual's brain.

Colran

Jogoist (6.7%)

Veriist (4.6%)

Other (8.1%)

Colran is the fourth planet in the Quidermin Star System, in the Pezno Corner of the KC. It is closest to the planets Capreln and Camerii, the latter of which it has a history of tensions with.

The climate in Colran is typically colder than the average temperature for a colonised temperate KC planet, and there is a great deal of woodland. Colran was one of the first known democratic republics in the Kalooki Corner, becoming an affluent and prosperous planet in the millenia before the discovery of Camerii and numerous ensuing wars. Colran was also temporarily part of the Union Fardin Planets (UFP) union, however today is not part of the ex-UFP economic union.

## Name and etymology

The name 'Colran' came from combining the prefix 'Col', as in 'Colcammo' and 'Colmarra', two main rivers across Colran, with Col referring to gold and wealth, and 'Ran', a suffix meaning location, hence the names of mountainous regions such as 'Denran' and 'Skyran'.

The Name was officially used in the signing of the planetary agreement, formed in around 1725 (Mt) after the planet agreed to a parliament representing their whole planet.

## Economy

The economy of Colran is one of the strongest in Quidermin, and the highest in the star system by GDP per capita. The planet has a primarily import-based economy, selling few materials, but housing many large companies, and attracting companies from other planets by offering low tax rates.

## Government and politics

### Foreign Relations

Colran has a good relationship with the United Planets, being early to join in the process, and having good relations with the founding members Apporross, Ficko, Evancya and Mascos.

Colran established major trade deals with Apporross and Gon after the Mad Man's War, later setting up several greatly significant trade deals and research agreements with Ficko in around 1985 (Mt). In 1997 (Mt), Colran set up a major arms deal with Doloosioo, buying major contracts for weapons and even buying patents and factories in Doloosioo off the Doloosian government. The 'Pro-Colranians' successfully outvoted withstanding Gonian members of the Doloosian government to allow joint Colranian-Doloosian business plans and promise protection to Colran.

Colran has long had a rivalry with Camerii, with whom they have been going through a series of conflicts since 2012 (Mt) when a number of Camerii spaceships began attacking trade convoys of Colran. Camerii and Colran also dispute ownership of the planetoid Lahja, which Camerii claims to be its sovereign land, and Colran claiming it to be under Colranian protection. The Protectorate of Lahja sides with Colranian influence, however there are some pro-Camerii parties in Lahja, due to corruption fears and wealth inequality.

 **Rongo Rongo** | 9,200
 **Qwerimima** | 11,560
 **Mbab** | 42,300

#### **Lucander**

This planet is greatly reliant on other planets using it as a trading post, whilst a huge black market oversees foreign exports and imports of rare goods and luxury materials which are traded in the central hubs of trading posts, as well as market cities, governed by few laws. Most of the natural resources are located within factions, kingdoms and states within the empire.

#### **Rongo Rongo**

The economy of Rongo Rongo is largely reliant on farm-land and natural reserves. Rongo Rongo is largely made up of colonies stemming from Mbab which have extended to Rongo Rongo, and excesses of extracting natural resources abound.

#### **Qwerimima**

Qwerimima relies heavily on foreign investment and is rife with wealth inequality. This is because it poses relatively low taxes for foreigners with lots of money, and the government enforces little regulation.

#### **Mbab**

Mbab is strongly reliant on individual production and local market places which tend to congregate on the outskirts of cities. As well as this, reservoirs for magic tend to be places of power and influence and greater economic prosperity, however they are often militarily contested by internally warring factions.

Black Kaleb

Dark Entity Black Kaleb

Death

Black Kaleb is a mythical being and extinct cosmic entity that mostly took the form of a black billy goat. His intentions throughout history have been unknown, though in folk lore it is said he exists only to scare, steal and eat children (respective to different folk traditions/stories). At one point in time he was believed to represent death, and to be in possession of the mortem, a force allowing him to control life and death, and send souls to the dead dimension.

## The Cosmic Entity

### **Origins**

According to the High Power Council Records, Black Kaleb was created as the ultimate evil power by the Dark Lord Denon's protigee, the Dark Lord Myelon. It is mostly unknown what Black Kaleb did thereafter for millions of years, though he was believed to have been destroyed by The Age and banished to the dead dimension.

### **Embodiment of Death**

Black Kaleb is believed to have become the embodiment of death after acquiring the mortem through the force's apparent independent choice. Black Kaleb used this power to attempt to massacre every child in the Chasma Corner. He succeeded in about 2/5 children, however he was thwarted by The Age, alongside Diaganon, a cosmic being in possession of the pelekriptos.

The two managed to exile Black Kaleb to the death dimension, extracted the mortem from him by eradicating his body.

### **Return**

Prophecies foretold of Black Kaleb's return, a claim that The Age investigated, using the Cromin Room to seek the future and discover whether Dark Kaleb would return. Unbeknownst to The Age and Deb Deb, their search for Black Kaleb in the future allowed him to return through a trace search for him in the Cromin Room, as a cosmic entity. He was then able to transmit his thoughts to the members of the Enclave of Jinher-5 after their unsuccessful invasion of the Cromin Room, and convince them to resurrect him as a goat.
Fickolean Corporate Investment Authority

The Fickolean Corporate Investment Authority is a state-owned investment fund headquartered in Ficko City, UEA, and using Fickolean state assets to invest in a variety of businesses, both inside and outside Ficko. In 2018 (Mt), the total revenue of the FCIA was approximately [sq]200trillion.

## History

The FCIA was founded alongside numerous other Investment funds in 1998 (Mt) in commodities, indices, and currencies alongside corporations.

#### **Can**

Can's economic system favours a free market approach wherein companies are given total autonomy with limited regulation in a style similar to Colran. There is greater regulation, however, though still limited, on foreign companies, although the planet requires less tax than neighbours and therefore encourages foreign businesses to rebase in Can.

#### **Vlam**

Vlam has a similar economic system to Can, with a strong welfare state reliant on the large amounts of amonium nitrate Vlam exports, due to its capability of production in this regard. The government of Vlam in the 20 years has set up a number of large investment funds to invest in businesses from Ficko, Mascos, Biackaar and Snod-Lipton.

#### **Floob**

The Flooban government controls a great deal of the economy, allowing companies to exist if co-created and co-chaired by the state. Businesses from Tylan are banned from Floob, and most of their economic output comes from exporting goods and materials, meats, manufacturing and arms exports. The Flooban government is supported partly by Gon and Marlcos, but primarily by Tricos, who rely on its cheap manufacturing.

#### **Catmell**

Catmell is an almost entirely state-run government, allowing foreign businesses in with heavy taxes and regulation, but primarily distributing goods and services out equally. Profit is allowed, as each individual is capable of selling goods, however the formation of a group enterprise is forbidden, and if found is taken over by the state. This has led to a large black market which is systematically being bought up by the state, even including drug businesses.

#### **Arancie**

Arancie offers low taxes and has large debts to planets such as Can, Ficko and Doloosioo. These debts have mainly been used to make Arancie an attractive business destination, and to ensure a strong police force. Arancie has virtually no welfare state, and has 'humane' prisons. Most businesses in Arancie come from outside the planet, and much of its infastructure was built by Can when it was colonised in 1784.
