In order to ensure the security and continuing stability, the Republic will be reorganized. Into the FIRST, GALACTIC, EMPIRE! For a safe, and secure, society.
It has been 8 years since the reformation of the Republic into the Galactic Empire and it is a time of peace and prosperity, or so the Holovids claim. Tyranny, fear, greed. These are all the inner machinations of the Empire. While there are idealists within the Empire that is far from what the Empire has become. On Boonta, one of the Imperials hubs near the infamous Hutt space the regional Governor Sarrus lords above all. An uncaring dictator who only cares so long as the food, credits, alcohol and spice keeps flowing.
This makes daily life no easier, Colonel Vale fills in for the lack of cruelty. Stepping firmly on any sign of insurrection, ensuring that the planet is well defended and that all quotas for the mines is met on time. In all but name the planet is under his control and a firm and cold grip it is. Yet as is always true, the more control the Empire tries to exert the more people who begin to resent it instead of fear it. Boonta is on the,
Edge of Rebellion
It is 11BBY, and the Empire controls the Galaxy. This roleplay will take place on the world of Boonta, a scrapyard, scum ridden mining world near Hutt Space. The world itself acts as an important point for all Imperial Interests in the nearby sectors. Though all throughout the galaxy dissent is growing as people finally begin to realize, that the Galactic Empire is not as good as it was once hoped to be. While it promised stability after the Clone Wars and order, it merely offers oppression and control.
As such all over the galaxy small cells of rebels are rising up, however the Empire is quick to extinguish these groups. Cells struggle to survive in an ever changing Galaxy, will you fight for the security of the Empire? Or are you brave enough to stand in front of the Empire's war machine, raise your hand and say “No More”?
Boonta:
Boonta, like most outer rim worlds has a smaller population compared to most core bound worlds. With a population of just over eighty million, per the last consensus thirty years ago. Despite this small population the world is still of great importance due to its strategic location. Able to act as a supply base for the Imperial Efforts in the system, with additional slave labor it can be easily mined and provides convenient access to Hutt space but is not so close as to mean the entire world is corrupt.
The world itself has three major hubs, the first being Boonta. The city named after the hutt and the planet itself. This hub hosts the podracing stadium and has the major spaceport, it also plays host to the Governors palace and the majority of the Imperial presence. The second city is the Shining Gem (Pre Imperial: Ko Yaril) an older city mainly inhabited by the Tionese and has been ever since the Hutts first "claimed" the planet millenia ago. The third city is the mining capital known as Hollow Rock, previously a Tionese settlement it was renamed after the Imperials discovered it could be a useful mining hub for their operations.
The rest of the population largely lives in small towns or farmsteads in the vast greenlands on the planet that are ideally suited for growing crops or raising livestock. However there are two deserts near each of the poles, and the equilateral region plays host to several major forests.
In space there lies a vast scrapyard of abandoned and useless ships, in it there is a space station host to five thousand people who spend their days stripping ships of useful parts for the Empires war machine.
