Planetary Geography
Okefenokee is dominated by swamps that encircle the tropical and temperate regions of the planet, including one named the "Great Swamp". Located beneath the many swamps is a vast quantity of oil.[1]
Planetary History
One of the poorest worlds to be found within the borders of the Federated Suns, for much of the planet's history the settlements on Okefenokee were limited to isolated villages occupied by religious zealots dotted around within the Great Swamp, sharing the world with native fauna that most humans would find to be either dangerous or simply disgusting. The arrival of Interstellar Star Petroleum changed things signficantly; under the auspices of the Federated Suns government, Interstellar Star Petroleum were conducting a vast exploratory survey, and that survey discovered the vast oil reserves located under the swamps on the planet.[1]
The discovery resulted in an ecomonic boom for the planet, with people arriving in large numbers and outside money and products pouring into the planet, much to the consternation of the local population; by 3025, the original population of Okefenokee had resorted to shooting at those who ventured into the swamps.[1]
