Alvira is the seat of the central government of the Allied Nations of Alvira, as well as the home world of the Alviran species. Alvira is a terrestrial moon orbiting the gas giant Alvader, one of the 16 planetary objects orbiting the trinary star system of Abingdon. Alvira does not have a natural satellites, however Alvader's 24 other satellites are easily observable from Alvira, with 4 of them in a consistently close distance. Although well populated, Alvira's natural beauty has been successfully preserved and protected, and most of the inhabitants of the moon lives closer to the equator, leaving the vast majority of the planet undeveloped. The northern hemisphere featured a massive crater that developed from the impact of the asteroid V-121-E in 371 BBT, a crisis that laid foundation to the creation of the Alliance.
Etymology
History
Geography and Climate
Alvira has more land area than it has water surface, with only 41.8% of its surface covered in salt water. This caused most of the landmass to be arid, and have less humidity and rainfall. The planet has 7 oceanic bodies, while its landmasses are all connected. Most of Alvira's mountainous terrains can be found in its temperate zone, where due to its rotational tilt, the gravity of Alvader exerts the most influence. Alvader's gravitational influence on Alvira caused most of the moon's volcanic activity. Tectonic force are still noticeable, but most geologic phenomena on Alvira can be attributed to its gravitational relationship with its gas giant.
