Envilles

Envilles is an industrial colony established in -35 within the Navareo Empire's Outer Belt territories. Located on an atmosphere-free rocky world orbiting a K2V star, the colony has evolved into a crucial manufacturing hub under the dominion of Theotech Corporation. The settlement exemplifies the Empire's capacity to transform inhospitable worlds into productive industrial centres through advanced environmental engineering.

Industrial Infrastructure

The colony's primary industrial complex spans approximately 724 square kilometres, comprising interconnected pressure domes and atmospheric containment fields. These structures house Theotech's manufacturing facilities, which specialise in consumer electronics, polymer-based products, and precision machinery. The facilities draw resources primarily from the Kervin Belt, a nearby asteroid field rich in base metals and organic compounds.

Notable among the colony's engineering achievements is the Theotech Central Processing Hub, a 12-kilometre-wide facility that serves as both the administrative centre and primary assembly complex. The hub employs revolutionary atmospheric recycling systems developed by Yalgeth Labs, enabling near-perfect resource conservation within its sealed environment.

Society and Demographics

As of the most recent imperial census (42-3154.99), Envilles hosts a population of 2.3 million permanent residents, with an additional floating population of approximately 400,000 temporary workers and specialists. The colony maintains a strict hierarchical social structure, with technical specialists and engineering personnel forming the upper echelons of society.

Housing is organised into 29 residential complexes, each designed to accommodate specific workforce segments. While austere by imperial standards, these facilities provide essential amenities and maintain atmospheric conditions optimised for Navarean physiology.

Economic Impact

Envilles contributes approximately 3.2% of the Navareo Empire's total manufacturing output, with a particular focus on mid-range consumer goods and industrial components. The colony's strategic position along established trade routes has enabled it to maintain competitive production costs despite its challenging environmental conditions.
