Owner History

Planetary Info

Azha was very important to the CCAF because even though it's a small world it possesses an excellent strategic location. The Strategios placed Procurement Division offices that served the Tikonov and Sarna Commonalities on Azha. Though it has enough farmland to support its population, the world still had to import foodstuffs for visitors and guests. The near desert environment made it difficult to farm, but the vast stores of minerals and metals beneath the surface gave birth to a thriving electronics industry.

The main continent, Castellan, holds the planetary capital of Casella. The CCAF warehouses are located in this city. The smaller continents are Brasilia (to the south) and Ortega. Brasilia is the location for most of Azha's farms. Ortega is abandoned, and has been since the Tikonov-Sarna War that happened between 2351 and 2352. The sheer amount of damage inflicted by the war marked it as a haunted place that no one dares venture into.[1]

The Word of Blake did apparently land on the world, but didn't stay long. The local militia unit set out to face the Blakists, but vanished. No trace of them was ever found.[1]
