Myrillian

Myrillian was a fairly temperate planet in the galactic Mid Rim, and has a tundra atmosphere, with pockets of temperate woodland, rivers and lakes. The planet was mostly unpopulated until the Jorians colonized the planet in 22 ADK. The planet was ruled over by lord Thalas Utharian, until it was taken by the Montrosh in 200 ADK. Shortly after, the Jorian 'Pure Vengeance' Attack Force re-took the planet.

History
Originally, the planet was inhabited by humans, or near humans, up until 16 BDK, when a Sith invasion force commited a planetary genocide, hunting down and eliminated almost of the locals. After Krayts' death, the Sith were forced offworld by the galactic triumvirate. Although the Sith were forced away, the planet remained uninhabited. After the peace treaty signed between the Empire and the Jorian Sovereign Kingdoms, the Jorians colonized the planet.It was struck by several raids during the Blood Wars, though the Jorian forces under Thalas Utharian, fought them off. They enjoyed nearly four dozen years of peace, before the emergence of the Montrosh, who took the planet. Jorian casualties were in the high thousands, before the Jorian battle force Pure Vengeance retook the planet.

Geography
Myrillian was mostly temperate with a few oceans and island areas farther south. Most of the planet was covered in forests, and plains, with lakes and rivers. This was ideal farming land for most of the settlers, although it was also used to erect cities, and Jorians set up defensive emplacements, such as fort Grasshawk. The planet had little to no mountains, although the planets highest peak was mount Idranak, one of the few mountains that had snow on its' peak.

Small mountain ranges usually overshadowed the plains, and during the rain season, flooding was a regular occurence. Due to the large landmasses of Myrillians continents, earthquakes were very rare, if not once-every generation occurrences. The main continent held most of the planets cities, and defensive emplacements.

Flora
Many trees made up the flora of the planet, with a surprisingly little amount of undergrowth. Most of the trees, known as Reri trees could grow up to one hundred or more meters, with large, spreading canopies, that made wandering through the forests of Myrillian much like walking at midnight. Another planet was the Thenek root, from the plant of the same name. This root was collected by both humans and Jorians as a food source. Onyat berry, growing on the few bushes in the planets northern hemisphere, were also used as food and making a largely popular drink.

Fauna
Horses, imported by the Jorians when they arrived were the most organic means of transportation. Plains Bantha's were also brought on world, although they were hunted by reptilian, two legged Carivs. The Carivs were hunted nearly to exstinction by the Jorians, when they arrived on the planet. Grasshawks, large predatory birds that preyed on large rodents, lived in the upper canopies of Myrillians forests.

Inhabitants
Most of the inhabitants are Jorian, with a few Addys, and several million human and aliens. Despite initial conflicts the inhabitants live mostly in peace, with the Galactic Interplanetary Alliance keeping a close eye on the Jorian presence. Despite the fact that Jorian soldiers re-took the planet near the middle of the war, many of the older human families resent their presence, and continued use of Myrillian as a Jorian colony.
