New Aztlan

Summary
One ringed planet is resourceful for the heavy metals that can be mined and sent planetside. They export but are at the mercy of another system(s) that are able to protect their markets and exploit this systems. Perhaps exploratory "digs" can put this system on top. A few barren worlds might be promising. One of them a huge exoplanet orbiting close to the star. An orange tinged atmosphere and a planet that has more continental lands than ocean space is what distinguishes the geography of the planet.

Politics & Trade
New Aztlan was named by an pan-indigenous coalition that sought a home hopefully where various indigenous societies could find refuge. Originally, such homes were to be found among all planets but a resurgence in history and culture from old Gaia made it timely and possible to experiment with a home planet that would integrate any society but would protect indigenous nations and cultures as well. Many inhabitants ironically re-use an old North American/Terran term - 'the rez' when talking about their place in the interstellar political order.

Aspects

 * export-driven at expense of system's commonwealth


 * lots of resource speculating


 * A home for indigenous cultures from Mother Terra - United Native Nations as a loose global confederation.
