Honarthian Calendar

The Honarthian Calendar consists of 400 standard days, divided into 10 months of 40 days each, each month separated in 4 tendays. There are also 4 global holidays. These holidays are celebrated by the entire world and commemorate important events or figures in Honarth's history.  

Population

Honarth is filled with Humans, Cadonians and Droids all coexisting in peace and prosperity for thousands of years. Still you can find that the expansion and populace percentage of the two different sentient species, is known to have remained in the same levels throughout the known history. Humans roughly account for ~70% of sentient beings and Cadonians cover the rest ~30%.  

Populace Spread

Honarth has several megacities spread throughout the planet's surface with over 85% of the planet's population living in the two biggest megacities, Honiar, Honarth's capital, a 13 Level underground vast city, home to over 50.000,000 sentient beings, and Arthis, the second largest city with 8 Levels and housing over 27.000.000 people. The rest of Honarth's inhabitants live in other smaller cities or in tribes in the wilderness of the planet.  

Government & Politics

Honarth is ruled by a central government, comprised of a council of elected representatives from each sector of the world. This government controls the world's economy, infrastructure, the judicial system and law enforcement agencies. Each sector also has its own local government, responsible for the day-to-day management of their respective regions.   You can read more about how government, politics and specific public services and programs work in Honarth in the Government & Politics category.  

Day-to-day Life

In the urban corporate world of Honarth, citizens lead fast-paced lives, with advanced technology and corporate advancements at their fingertips. The corporation provides for its citizens, with employment, housing and healthcare all part of their benefits. The daily lives of the citizens are structured and routine, with work, leisure and rest all part of their day-to-day activities.   For the tribal people, life is much different. They live off the land, hunting and gathering their food, and relying on their close-knit communities for support and protection. They have their own unique traditions and cultures, often steeped in spirituality and the worship of ancient gods and spirits.  

Struggles & Conflicts

Despite its advanced technology and centralized government, Honarth is not without its struggles and conflicts. The urban corporate sector is plagued by gang wars and power struggles, while the tribal people face threats from raiders and illegal relic hunters. The government must also balance the needs of its various sectors, as well as deal with the consequences of its own actions.
