The planet Tarsonis (tahr-saw-nis)[[1]], also known as Errin (air-rin) to its native Nincar population, is a lush, beautiful, green and wet terrestrial world. The Nincar are a sentient species that live in a primitive tribal society that have established small villages along the many waterways. Despite the native population, Tarsonis is the main cultural and population center for the New Republic within the Greeop System.

Colonization
The planet is an extremely popular destination since it was colonized and joined the New Republic. It was first discovered by an Old Republic galactic cartography expedition. It went largely unnoticed until Alderaanian refugees colonized the planet's land masses shortly after Alderaan's destruction in an effort to relocate on a world that is parallel to Alderaan's beauty. After the fall of Palpatine's Empire, Mon Calamari and Quarren colonists began to settle Tarsonis' deep oceans with large floating cities and have since turned Tarsonis into the largest Mon Calamari and Quarren population center outside of Mon Calamari itself. These three groups of colonists have joined together to form a planetary, colonial government which leaves the Nincar in peace.
Ecomony
With 75% of its surface covered by free standing water, Tarsonis also has a developing aquaculture technology led by the Mon Calamari and Quarren colonists which is already beginning to produce mass quantities of food. The colonists are now working on creating trade networks to export this resource. The Alderaanian colonists also have their own enterprises with a resort and tourist industry, taking advantage of Tarsonis' many beaches. Also notable is Tarsonis University, which is the most distinguished center of higher learning in the Greeop System.
Government
The Alderaanians, Mon Calamari and Quarren have united to form a planetary government that belongs to the New Republic. The capital city of Tarsonis is New Morea City, populated chiefly by the Alderaanian colonists. The government is headed by an executive branch under a President. The current president is Voss Aluin. Nincar have been invited to participate in the global government, but have so far declined. As they are technologically quite behind the colonists, the refusal has not been much regretted.
Defense
The military of Tarsonis, the Tarsonis Defense Force (TDF), works in coalition with the Rebel Squadrons fleets to defend the planet. The TDF is currently armed with 2 squadrons of B-Wings and an Alderaanian War Cruiser. Two Rebel Squadrons Golan III defense stations orbit the planet, along with a third commanded by the TDF that houses the bulk of its space force.
