      Rann fits a designation between Civilized World and Agri-World. It is planet of a vast ocean covered by many thousands of islands breaking up the dark green expanse. It seems that at one point in the planet's history there was a greater landmass that sunk down due to some geological collapse. Along with this, magma vents grew from the collapse that created the islands. The vents tended to be smaller but more numerous. There are interestingly no above-ground volcanoes on the planet. The vast land reaches of the planet tend to have a tropical nature of sorts. Indeed, most of the livable landmass that covers about a third of the planet in the multitudes of lands are all centered around the planet's equator. The northern and southern bits are a bit more temperate and great big ice-sheets cover the poles.       Rann is rather feudal by design. Their technology matches that of many civilized worlds but much of the planet's hierarchy starts with great big clans at the bottom that are connected by villages and townships ruled by seneschals in the stead of nobility that rule great tracts of land including multiple islands underneath the Prime, who right now is Verus Galatia the Eighth. Underneath the nobility are retinues of forces that keep order and also comprise the policing force along with acting as militia. These men and women are well-armed, well-trained, and indoctrinated to be utterly loyal to the nobility and especially the Prime.
      The Prime is named as such as he is of the first family to settle Rann. Interestingly, the lower clans actually have a sort of presence in the power structure of the planet as there is a sort of parliamentary apparatus there.
      Deep mining would lessen livable space on the planet surface. There are a number of underwater structures, however. Along with underwater settlements, mining structures, and enclosures. That is part of where Rann’s wealth comes from. It’s also where the piece is held. His domain is not on the islands but underneath the water and that piece is in his land. Along with the water agri-fields and fisheries.

       The administratum is in the process of raising the tithe grade. It would require a mass overhaul and extreme exorbitant measures on the world and its inhabitants along with possibly ruining the oceans with what would have to be built. This seems to be a recent development after Selvanus Binary found a titan STC and the sector is being more scrutinized and sized up to increase tithe grading and production. Even some Calixian cartographers are putting it back on the map.
       The parliamentary spaces on the planet are spread out. They are linked together by a mass vox-caster and holo-vid system. Weapons are not allowed in those places. You’ll know them easily, they’re big domed buildings with great satellites on them
