Azarus

 

Azarus is a planetary system orbiting a white/yellow F-class star.  The system lies in the Puppis Constellation of the Canopus Region.

 
The Azarus System has long been the political and economic center of the Canopus Region.  Though the primary planet has been populated with indigenous humans for thousands of years, it's true rise to glory didn't come until after the rise of interstellar travel.  As billions across the Inner Sphere ventured into the stars looking for new worlds to call home, Azarus became a mecca for those relocating to new worlds.

 

As the population on the primary planet started to swell, the small yet dense world started to quickly overcrowd.  Oceans were drained to create more land areas to ease the rapid growth.  Eventually the small world was covered with an ecumenopolis, a planet wide continuous city covering nearly the entire surface.

 

Conditions inside the city varied as the planet became the home of both the richest and poorest in the Canopus Region.  Social injustice along with the disproportion of wealth was rampant.  Everything from the darkest slums to the most luxurious places could be found in the ecumenopolis on Azarus.

 

The planet has redeeming qualities though, it's a melting pot of the thousands of cultures of the many worlds throughout the Canopus Region and the Inner Sphere.  Travelling through the vast city can feel like travelling across many different planets.
