Cordus

Cordus is a moon located in the Hogen system in the south-west Stahlherzbund Galaxy. It is uninhabited, and is under the control of the Anovian Empire. It is notable for its mountainous geography, indicating that it was once covered by glaciers. The geography lends itself well to SHB training exercises, which are ongoing. It is also the secret location of Anovia's Droid Development Programme, which is why droids are primarily used in the SHB training exercises.

The moon orbits the planet Glactoid, which is covered in dense jungles--a stark contrast from the barren wasteland that is Cordus. Unlike Glactoid, Cordus has a very thin methane atmosphere akin to that of Mars. There is no breathable oxygen on the surface. It has polar ice caps, which reach temperatures as low as -150°C.

The moon was surveyed by Anovia upon arrival in the SHB galaxy and was deemed a suitable testing sight by the Anovian Military Initiative Council.
