Military
Due to its status as the capitol of the Republic. Saralin has two battalions of Derilict Army on guard at all times.
Trade
Saralin relies heavily on manufacturing goods, and is considered the 'workhorse' of the Republic. Raw minerals are imported from Derilict V and refined into a suitable trade material.
Culture
While some would think that a city with such a trade would be rough and vulgar, Saralin has grown to become one of the galaxy's most envied cultural centers. Its art, music, and writing are direct and to-the-point, but still strangely mysterious.
Geography
Saralin rests on top of the Alpaen archipelago, the city is divided into several parts.
- Residential: This portion of the city is mainly composed of houses and residential units. It rests on the shores of the islands and, in many cases, on man-made islands placed just off the shore.
- Commercial: This part of Saaralin is home to the business and arts. Also, the sprawling campus of the Saralin Institute of Higher Education is in this area.
- Industrial/Spaceport: This area is placed inside the largest island (approx. 10 Sn wide). On the surface is the Saralin Spaceport, where shuttles transport material up to a station in orbit where larger ships dock. Smaller craft land directly at the Spaceport. Below the surface are the mineral refinement factories. These factories use a variety of technologies to eliminate smog from reaching the atmosphere, leaving Saralin pristine.
