Matravin

Matravin is an arid world third in line from the sun. A vast desert covers over a quarter of the planets surface. Mineral-rich mountains cover about half the planet. And the remaining quarter is available for farming and life. Because of the resource defecit, Matravin must look to other planets to harvest resources and expand the population. They have superior manufacturing and rely mostly robots for an army since the population is so small.

History
Matravin was once a garden planet similar to Power World and Bugdum. The three planets orbited at near perfect distances. Then the middle of the three, Matravin, was hit by a massive asteroid almost the size of the moon. Its atmosphere was weakened and almost the entire planet became a desert. It is believed that this asteroid was a piece of the planet that impacted the Unnamed Volcanic Planet when its original star was destroyed.

Eventually, settlers from Power World began to colonize Matravin. After many years, the colonies won their independence. Still, it remained in Power World's shadow (due to their positions from the sun, this was sometimes literal), and tensions were augmented.

When the Matravinian Civil War broke out, Anthony stepped in and chose the side with more power and put himself on top. Matravin Defense Industries was started, creating jobs for a large portion of the population.
