Kordan

"None of the bastards on this cess-pit would dare touch me lest I have an armada come here and glass the planet from high-orbit."

- Enzi Wakali, Mfalme of the Awali

The world of Kordan is a large planet located in the Kordan Sub-Sector. The planet is home to the imfamous criminal race known as the Kordanians, desendent of the planet's first colonists when it was established as a penal colony for the Xyon Sector in 1,809 XE. The planet was a major penal colony for the Xai Ascendnacy during that time, but a major planetary riot in 3,347 XE resulted in the world declaring its independence which was permitted on the grounds it never establish an off-world colony under threat of destruction by the Ascendnacy. The world has since come to serve as the heart of the sector's criminal world, where anything and everything can happen.

Today, Kordan remains very much the dangerous world it was when it was established, and is ruled by a host of powerful gangs, syndicates, and consortiums that collectively form the planetary government known as the Kordanian Assembly. Travellers do their best to avoid the planet, and the world itself is kept in check by its moon Juno, which became the homeworld of the Awali in 5,918 XE following the Kalahari Civil War. The Awali have been tasked by the Patriarch of the Xai to punish any Kordanian attempts to expand beyond the world, a task that could possibly see Juno ravaged in a full-scale war if that ever happens.
