[3132] From orbit, Alphecca is an unremarkable world of blue-green oceans, with a scattering of six island
continents and a multitude of smaller chains that are covered half the time by mist and clouds. On the surface, the
world's lands are equally plain, mostly consisting of rolling hills, the odd rocky mountain peak, and grassy plains.
Though the climate varies from artic tundra to tropical equatorial reaches, on close inspection nothing about
Alphecca stands out from the hundreds of swirling worlds that mankind calls home. Lacking in significant, readily
accessible natural resources, Alphecca proved suitable only for settlement as a quiet farming world, its primary
exports being native grains and meat from the gillarg, a large, relatively dumb amphibian that many locals describe
as: a cross between a cow and a cowardly, toothless alligator.

The people of Alphecca gradually became inured to their sustenance-level existence, to the point where visitors
often scoffed at their laid-back attitude toward even the most divisive political and religious matters. For
centuries, the world's mediocrity and the lethargy of its inhabitants were its shield. Regarded as little more than a
staging area for raids, or a quiet place for R&R, only a few odd roving bandits paid this world a visit after its first
colonization, and it only changed hands between the Lyran Commonwealth and the Draconis Combine twice in its
history. Alphecca was thus spared the worst of the Succession Wars, the FedCom Civil War, and even the
Word of Blake Jihad. The population, however, suffered a severe shake-up when the planet was finally ceded to
Devlin Stone's Republic of the Sphere and his relocation directives brought with them an influx of new colonists
from other realms. Strangely enough, over the decades even this upheaval passed relatively quickly, as it seemed
even the newcomers succumbed to the same lackadaisical demeanor within a short time of their arrival. Scientists
are only now beginning to wonder if something in Alphecca's environment may be the cause of this peculiar, but
apparently harmless, development.

Alphecca's capital city, Galanette Rainbow, is located on the northernmost island continent of Gataka. The other
northern continent, Rubekka, is home to the planet's largest seaport city, Fescher's Dock. Of the other four island
continents, Greim, Korinthas, Mursank, and Shario, only the southern polar continent of Greim is unpopulated,
due to its inhospitable climate.

Alphecca was originally part of the Lyran Commonwealth until the creation of The Republic.  Alphecca became
part of Prefecture IX under the control of The Republic.  After the fall of the HPG Network Fortress Republic
was created and many of the worlds under its control were set free.
[3135] Alphecca was released from the control of The Republic.

After being released from The Republic, Alphecca joined the Lyons Skye Territory.
