Tetrapolis
Tetrapolis is a city-planet in the Tetra system of the central cluster. It was initially terraformed from a small planetoid into having an earth-like atmosphere and ocean. The majority of the land on the planet is taken up by settlements, connected with high speed railways.
Ecosystem
The ecosystems of Tetrapolis were artificially created through the importation of flora and fauna from various earthlike planets. The oceans are rich with marine life and green areas of the planet fill the space the city leaves empty.
Climate
Tetrapolis has a comfortable climate year round in all areas of the planet, as it was artificially created to do so. The areas closer to the north and south poles tend to be cooler and the equator fairly warmer, but the climate remains temperate globally.
Natural Resources
Though the planet has some mineral resources, the planet was not chosen for terraforming for its resources. Rather, it was chosen as a project to test the Galactic Union's scientific advances in terraforming due to its strategic location, central to the union's central cluster.
