A desert planet located deep within the confines of the Babylon System, orbited by a sole moon, deeply resembling the Ancient Earth's own moon. The Planet itself is mostly barren, and it's only large bodies or water are two massive rivers, running from the Planet's south hemisphere, all the way up to the wastelands on the northern hemisphere of the planet, where they disappears in the sands and canyons.
Initially inhabited by an unknown sentient species, whose ruins still dot the planet, Samarra is currently inhabited by a large human population, who migrated there from Sirius, some 400 years ago. The planet's most notable settlements are located along the banks of the rivers, while some mining colonies and temples are located elsewhere on the surface. The last census, conducted roughly 50 years ago reveals that the settlements hold a population of around 3 million people, however, rumors speak of other uncounted settlements and nomadic populations that spam the wastelands of the planet, presumably formed by those who were either exiled or escaped the firm hand of the law over the years.
At first glance, the Samarran culture is faintly reminiscent of the ancient earth's arabic culture, even though this impression almost completely disappears after a further observation. At the head of the Samarran government is a figurehead only referred to as Prince who resides in the Royal Palace, in the the center of the capital city Assyria. The other territories are ruled by the Sheiks, both rightful and self-proclaimed alike, often displaying low levels of co-operation towards higher authority and fancying to consider their settlements and mining colonies as sovereign territories.
The society of Samarra is divided into castes, and the highest of them all being the Priest and Noble castes, who control the lives of the others, and in contrast to those two being the Slave caste, who don't even have control over their own lives.
