[edit] Karrez III
Affiliation: Klingon Empire
Class M - This planet reminds its Klingon inhabitants of the Klingon homeworld of Kronos in that it includes a lone huge land mass with a vast ocean. The planet is severely tilted on its axis that causes wild seasonal changes, a turbulent atmosphere and extremes of both warm and frigid weather.
Four moons orbit the planet with three larger planetoids. The fourth does have an atmosphere and limited planet life.
Early in the Federation year 2417, a super freighter suffered a warp core breach in the atmosphere of the planet. In the months that followed, the contamination and fallout poisoned the ecosphere of the planet as well as the Klingon population.
Both the Klingon Empire and the Dynasty (native to the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy) turned their backs on the planet, declaring it lost. Left with little choice, the Karrez High Council asked the Federation for help.
It is not yet known if the Federation will be able to halt the advancing catastrophy, but the USS SAM HOUSTON was dispatched in the last quarter of 2417 ahead of a Federation Red Cross relief convoy.

[edit] Moket
Affiliation: United Federation of Planets
Class M -- Originating in the Moket System of the Hell's Gate region of the Ansolon Galaxy, this planet now orbits Tekom-Ansolon in the Ansolon System.
It was colonized several years ago by a mixture of races from the Federation and also is home to a small Klingon settlement on the southern most continent.
Starbase Hell's Keep orbits the planet.
[edit] New Andor
Affiliation: United Federation of Planets
Class M -- Colonized by Andorians some years ago, its Federation citizenship recently came into question when the Andorians decided they wanted the Federation to leave. The situation was resolved when it was determined that one Andorian, Chancellor Thelas of keth Idisha had surplanted the authority of the Council of Clans. The USS SAM HOUSTON asserted Federation law, arresting the dictator, returning the government back to the council.
The planet is M-class with a colder climate that is more Earth-normal from the planet's equator outward, however, the poles cover over half the world.
Considering the arctic adaptation of the Andorian species, the Andorians have colonized the polar regions.
Near the planet's equator is the city of Umarev.
Named after Umarev of Keth Aldin who was the Andorian that led the first mission into the Huygemus Tri-cluster, Umarev is a Federation city that exists outside of normal planetary government, maintaining a certain level of neutrality in the region as it represents the arm of the Federation of Planets itself within the region.
Located within the city is the Marrakesh Command Complex (MCC), from which flows command of the Marrakesh Expeditionary Force, as well as the Federation Embassy and other political embassies to the Federation.
