Deserella

Deserella was a planet located in the Gerdan Outer Spiral section of the Galaxy. It was a large Zleesan colony planet, but with populations of other species as well.

At the beginning of the Alliance-Invaders War the planet was subjugated by the Invaders. Much of the population were either slaughtered or enslaved, and the planet itself was bombarded to the point where it was no longer habitable.

Appearance and Geography
From orbit, the planet appeared mot too dissimilar to other large scale Zleesan colony worlds. the planet had several large oceans and continental landmasses. The planet, thanks to it's axis and orbit of the sun, experienced a hot and wet season and a cold and snowy season. There were polar ice caps all year round, but other parts of the planet were covered by hot and arid deserts, or tropical and humid forests.

Dozens of biomes covered the planet, including grasslands, forests, coral reefs and mountainous areas.

The planet was located in the Deserellan Solar System had one sun, and three moons; Phoron, Derepetos and Carluac. None of the moons were habitable, although a small colony of people lived on Phoron in a giant dome.

History
Deserella was discovered at an early point in Galactic History by explorers from the planet Zleesan. The planet was colonised because of its similarities to the explorers' homeworld of Zleesan, and cities were built all across the planet's surface. The population lived in relative harmony for a few hundred years, until a revolution happened, causing a civil war. The planet split away from the Zleesan Empire, becoming; 'The free world of Deserella'.

When the Zleesan Empire formed into the Great Galactic Alliance Deserella rejoined as a Planetary Member, becoming one of the most prevalent voices in the Galactic Parliament.

By the time of the Alliance-Invaders War, Deserella had been a prominent part of galactic History. The Planet was targeted by the Invading Forces, and was attacked by a fleet of a Moon Warship, two Asteroid Warships, and thousands of smaller craft. The planet was entirely subjagated in under 12 hours, the population either enslaved or wiped out. The planet was so heavily bombarded that all life on the surface was killed, the planet was rendered uninhabitable, and the surface of the planet itself was cracked open.

Flora and Fauna
Deserella was well know throughout the Galaxy. Well known fauna included the Aynark Goat, Ballop Bird, Hergon, Zakkinak an the Zorvog Fish
