Vikindu
Vikindu is a planet, noted for its largely tropical coffee-friendly conditions. By 3151, the planet produced approximately half of the coffee found within 250 light years of Terra.[30]
Planetary History
Up to 3080, Vikindu's coffee industry depended on the extensive exploitation of its workers. In 3080, amidst the chaos of the Jihad, the Free Worlds League pulled its forces from the planet, and local revolutionaries took advantage. Led by Jene Spencer-Lee, the revolutionaries engaged the ruling nobles in a years-long civil war, eventually taking power and securing Vikindu's independence as a less centralized republic. For the next two decades, Spencer-Lee's government focused on stabilizing, re-establishing trade and rebuilding while holding on to independence.[30]
