Planetary Info
Originally the only feature of note was a large canyon that gave the world it's name. A religious group from Terra settled on Great Gorge just before the first Star League was formed. This religious group scattered seeds from airplanes and fish eggs into the seas. The resulting oxygen generated by the plants allowed the fish to survive as they consumed the native algae. Originally a marginally habitable world with minor amounts of arable land, by the fall of the Star League the world was packed with settlers enjoying the plentiful air, water, and food. In addition, several mining companies found that the Great Gorge itself provided easy access to minerals and precious metals. As a result the standard of living rose.[1]
During the early years of the Jihad, Great Gorge left the Federated Suns and joined with several other worlds to form the Malagrotta Cooperative.[7]
