	'''Eridani I''' – originally referred to as '''Kamfulu''', a name that has now been entirely forgotten except by dregs – was not always similar to the Earth. ~~Historical documents related to the~~ colonisation ~~of the planet, which~~ initially happened on the 6th of May '''~~2095~~''' as it was among the first worlds that Humanity set its sights on describe it as ~~sprawling~~ with ~~thick~~ flora ~~of all kinds~~. It proved to be very fertile land in any case, and many colonists were attracted by its potential as a jewel colony. Colonisation quickly sped up and, in '''2210''', Eridani I had already become one of the premier colonies in terms of development.		'''Eridani I''' – originally referred to as '''Kamfulu''', a name that has now been entirely forgotten except by dregs – was not always similar to the Earth. Its colonisation initially happened on the 6th of May '''2102''', as it was among the first worlds that Humanity set its sights on. Historical archives from back then describe it as being covered in forests and jungles, along with having an extremely varied ecosystem, with many exotic types of flora. It proved to be very fertile land in any case, and many colonists were attracted by its potential as a jewel colony. Colonisation quickly sped up and, in '''2210''', Eridani I had already become one of the premier colonies in terms of development.

	With the expansion of the Eridani Corporate Federation, a problem quickly became evident: the planet’s thick vegetation was making it quite hard for the cities to continue expanding, and a constantly expanding economy was required for Credits to continue rolling. In fact, most of the population was at the time not concentrated into large urban centres, but rather in many cities dotted across the surface in gaps and holes in the forests. Thus, after many months of negotiations, a deal was struck with Zeng-Hu: in exchange for their exclusive rights to Eridani II, cutting-edge terraforming technology was to be given to the government. This technology was used not only to achieve a perfect climate for human development and to maintain it, but more importantly to gradually erase practically '''all''' uncontrolled vegetation across the planet. As a result, Eridani I’s air quality is among the worst in the Spur, with all of the air purification being done artificially. Gardens and forests continue to exist in controlled environments in the megacities, but only in token amounts – and, of course, as tourist destinations. The most exclusive arboretums often function as meeting places for high-level executives who wish to not be interrupted by paparazzi looking for the latest scoop.

	Eridani I’s status as a gigantic trade and labour hub means that it receives an immense flux of immigration. This immigration, however, is a curious type when compared to all other planets: many people from across the Spur come to Eridani for an average amount of six years for humans in order to find better-paying labour. These immigrants are referred to as '''work tourists''' by Eridanians and even across the Spur. These work tourists often incorporate some words of Suit slang into their vocabulary in order to fit into Eridanian society slightly more, but never end up quite submitting to Eridani’s crushing demands. Work tourists often work a similar work week to other planets in the Spur, which is shorter than the Eridanian work week of ten hours across six days. This leads to some resentment towards work tourists, and sometimes even jealousy. Eridanian opinions on this matter vary, but most of them recognize that they do bring in a good amount of credits.

	A common example of this work tourism is the '''Eridani PMC Academy'''. This academy is shared by all EPMCs and carries out a crucial function: it is not only where Eridanian native PMCs are trained, but also where foreign EPMCs must go for '''at least one month''' in order to acclimatise to Suit and Eridanian culture. This acclimatisation training is named '''the Foreign Hire Program''', but is colloquially referred to as '''the Internship'''. This month-long program trains foreign hires in their relevant fields to make sure that their knowledge is up to par, but also mandates Eridanian culture classes, as these employees will end up having to speak to Eridanian superiors and colleagues quite often throughout their career. A foreign hire is referred to as '''pierced''' by Eridanians if they have not passed their Internship, at which point they are referred to as '''bought'''. Native Eridanian PMCs often look down on pierced foreign hires as being a step below them: as a result, hazing foreign hires during their Internship is quite common. For many Eridanians, this sentiment ends when a foreign hire passes the Internship, while others continue to look down on these foreign hires until they subjectively deem them as sufficiently integrated. If a foreign free IPC needs to travel to the Eridani PMC Academy for training or otherwise to the Eridani Corporate Federation for company purposes, they will be transported there by the company with transportation costs deducted from their salary. A technicality in the Eridani Private Contractor Freelance Code saying that since EPMCs function as the Eridani Military, ~~the~~ IPCs are in Eridani Space when in transit and can legally transit through Solarian space even though the Sol Alliance outlaws ~~free IPCs~~.

	Work tourists can find it hard to break into Eridani’s insular culture, depending on their luck. It can be challenging to ''truly'' make a friend, be trusted or even be seen as an equal as a foreigner. This has led to many immigrant communities forming in every megacity: Little New Hai Phongs can be found, in addition to Little Venuses, and so on. These immigrant communities end up forming nice attractions for Eridanians that wish to put a little spice in their day by partaking in a foreign culture: many immigrants make extra Credits on the side (or network) through activities such as hosting cultural food stands in their district. In any case, nobody leaves Eridani I without changing slightly due to societal pressures; most that leave at the very least end up hungrier for Credits than before.

	Suit culture is homogenised and thus does not vary much in Eridani I from the standard. It does vary slightly, however, on a megacity level. Interestingly enough, there is rivalry between the megacities, but Eridanians lack a true sense of patriotism or duty to their city. Many would ditch their city or even planet in search for better pay, unless their new conditions would be incompatible with them: a Tokuran resident who is particularly inclined towards party culture would almost never move to Fantalu due to the lack of entertainment districts. At the same time, it is simply easier for them to not move from their megacity and find better work there. More open-minded Suits can find elements of variation in foreign workers and their immigrant communities.		Suit culture is homogenised and thus does not vary much in Eridani I from the standard.

			Religion is still present in Suit culture to a certain degree, mainly in the middle and low class, with the majority religions being Islam and Christianity. These religious suits are often not practicing to the level of a Damascene Elyran, as an example, but some do still try to fit religion into their schedule where they can -- of course, their religion's core tenets may not mesh very well with the inherently greedy and corporate structure of the Eridani Corporate Federation. The upper class of suits -- CEOs and the like -- has very often completely embraced the Federation's corporate culture, choosing to discard distractions such as religions.

	Dregs live a very difficult and uphill life, doubly so if they wish to remain dregs and refuse the few opportunities for reintegration that exist. They are the only ones on Eridani I to refer to the planet and its continents with the respective defunct names: '''Ekeke''' for Ifihan, '''Lukingo''' for Tokura, '''Ichida''' for Madiwa and '''Maluwashi''' for Fantalu. Using the modern names would mean bowing down to the culture that they despise. Dreg culture, much like Suit culture, varies on a settlement level and there are countless settlements to be found in Eridani I's underground.

	'''Eridani I''' is the jewel and capital world of the Eridani Corporate Federation. It is the first of five named planets in the Eridani system and boasts the largest and most dense population of the five by far, with extremely high levels of development and endless opportunities for those who seek the blood of the galaxy – credits. Its climate is especially Earth-like, if not temperate, as a result of terraforming carried out by the Federation. Eridani I features four continents, two polar caps, and the most inoffensive atmosphere in order to attract as many work tourists as possible, if they do not mind the pollution. The planet boasts an extremely small number of cities, only four: a result of the immense and rampant expansion of the largest urban centres, which ended up absorbing all other settlements in their path. These megacities are some of the most advanced, populated, and chic in the Spur, where every single building is realised in the most neutral style possible in order to pander to just about everyone that might consider moving over.

It is the first of five named planets in the Eridani system and boasts the largest and most dense population of the five by far, with extremely high levels of development and endless opportunities for those who seek the blood of the galaxy – credits. Its climate is especially Earth-like, if not temperate, as a result of terraforming carried out by the Federation. Eridani I features four continents, two polar caps, and the most inoffensive atmosphere ~~possible~~ in order to attract as many work tourists as possible, if they do not mind the pollution. The planet boasts an extremely small number of cities, only four: a result of the immense and rampant expansion of the largest urban centres, which ended up absorbing all other settlements in their path. These megacities are some of the most advanced, populated, and chic in the Spur, where every single building is realised in the most neutral style possible in order to pander to just about everyone that might consider moving over.

	Below the cosmopolitan urban centres, however, lies the main home of the non-existent Eridanian underclass: most of Eridani I’s dregs reside in old and abandoned sewage, tunnel and mining complexes, often forming their own makeshift societies and small “shanty towns” when space permits. Some of these dregs find their home above the surface in relatively abandoned patches of space far away from the urban centres, usually deserts or mountains – areas that are certifiably not profitable, and thus not settled by anyone else. None of Eridani I’s shining opportunities are present for Eridani I’s dregs and their life standard has often been described as miserable or extremely poor by independent observers – criticisms that do not matter in the end, as this class does not officially exist.
