One of the oldest colonies in the Halo Frontier, Gandria began as a mission-colony of the Sokrinti Hegemony, but a certain native species of hallucinogens found its way into the food supply. This led to a variety of ecstatic religious experiences that eventually caused the theology of Gandria to veer sharply away from the Hegemony's orthodoxy, causing the formation of what is referred to as the Sokrinti Disorthodoxy by Gandrians, or the Gandrian Heresy by mainline Sokrinti Hegemonists.
Though not everyone who lives in Gandria is an adherent of the Disorthodoxy, everyone with any kind of political power or wealth certain is. Gandria's native economy is strongly agricultural and medical, owing to the native plantlife of the tundra and the subarctic bogs of Gandria.
Codexant's Rest
Capital City • Population 50 million
Named for the saint-figures in the Sokrinti faith, this is where the colonists from the Hegemony first landed and settled, beginning to build. Today, "the Rest" is a sprawling megapolis on the cold tundra south of Gandria's equator. Notes
- Home to the central temple-headquarters of the Sokrinti Disorthodoxy, the Sanctuary. Home and bureaucratic headquarters of the Codexant, as the chief theocrat of the Disorthodoxy is called.
, as well as the sub-sects of that faith, who operate as sort of theological corporations: each adheres to a different facet of the Disorthodoxy, and is thus entrusted with the care and employment of those who likewise adhere to those sects. These "bishoprics" function in all ways as major corporations, save that their focus is religious rather than capitalist.
