Aleria (Earth-5875)

Aleria, also known as Leir III, is a human Outer colony and the third planet in the Leir system, possessing a large mining industry. Generally deemed a "third world colony", Aleria suffered with crime, poverty, and a drought that lasted for a century. Duo to the colony's state, the mean age for Alerians, many identified as sand nomads, is only 55 years. Because the colonists are unable to use modern ships, they need to rely on outdated spacecraft such as Bactrian-class freighters.

Founding
Aleria was colonized in 2341, at the end of a millennia-long period of low solar activity that plagued the Leir system. Upon its conception, Aleria became an exemplary and urbanized Outer colony, known for its rich mineral resources and inspiring economy. However, not long after colonists had been settled on the planet, the UEG's efforts to terraform the system led the planet to become climatically unstable and the temperatures soon rose.

As agriculturists became concerned for the change, the UEG continued to perform several process of terraforming, and Aleria's mining industry rapidly expanded, prompting the establishment of Mols'Desias, a mining union that took control of the entire working force of the planet. Founded under noble goals, it eventually became corrupt, exchanging raw materials they produced to the UEG in trade of goods such as spaceships, electronics and food. The climate change continued to increase, severely decreasing the rains on the planet and leading to a major political unrest that sparked fear among the Alerians. Despite the local government's best efforts to keep the population under control, conditions became worse between the government and the Alerians themselves.
