	The official language of Xanu Prime is '''Xanan Freespeak''', a language that developed in the early days of the Xanu Prime colony from the grammatical hybridization of various languages from the Indian subcontinent with some loanwords taken from French and Dutch. It was formally codified in 2230 during the aftermath of the Xanan Civil War to function as a common tongue between the planet’s various colonists that could be easily learned and used words that were from their countries of origin. While many places on Xanu Prime have names taken from the languages of its original colonizing nations like Hindi, French, Urdu, and Dutch, very few if any people on the planet are still conversational in these languages, with almost all of them having been supplanted by Xanan Freespeak. Freespeak is taught in all schools, is known by nearly every resident of Xanu Prime, and is taught throughout the Coalition of Colonies as a lingua franca used for diplomacy and business relations between its various member states. Xanan government functions, law, and academia use Freespeak as their primary language, though Freespeak is not the only language spoken on Xanu Prime. Signage, popular media, literature, music, and film found in Xanu all are typically in Freespeak, but languages from all over the Coalition of Colonies can be found here, especially within ethnic communities from planets that speak a language other than Freespeak as their primary language. Himean Common, Sol Common, Assunzionii Tradeband, Gadpathuri Common, and even Vulgar Morozi are spoken on Xanu Prime within ethnic communities. Any hopeful immigrant to Xanu Prime must pass a Xanan Freespeak proficiency test in order to receive citizenship.

	'''Nouvelle-Rochelle''', founded in 2181, is oldest of Xanu Prime's cities as well as its most populous, it serves as the planet’s capital and the seat of government for the All-Xanu Republic, the Coalition of Colonies, and the Fisanduhian government-in-exile. Not only is it the largest city on Xanu Prime, but the largest in the Coalition of Colonies and one of the largest in all of the Orion Spur. Nouvelle-Rochelle, much like Xanu Prime as a whole, is exceptionally diverse with people from all over human space and beyond found here. The city’s '''Kulkarni Business District''' is famous for its towering skyscrapers, with the tallest building in the Coalition, the Polaris Holdings-owned North Star Tower among them. While bustling, Nouvelle-Rochelle has its quiet parts as well, such as the famous '''Lechevalier District''', a part of the city rebuilt after the Interstellar War and made to emulate authentic Parisian architecture. The district has styles ranging from lavish baroque era buildings to more austere or rococo-revivalist 19th and early 20th century styles, and even has buildings which take their inspiration from as far back as the medieval era such as the '''Our Lady of Sorrows Cathedral''', a colossal gothic-style cathedral built between 2285 and 2299 in remembrance of the fallen of the two wars Xanu Prime experienced during the 23rd century. Its graveyard houses the largest statue of the Virgin Mary in human space, the eponymous Our Lady of Xanu, which stands at one hundred meters tall, completed in 2994 during the cathedral’s construction. It’s an exceptionally famous piece of Xanan art and images of it have been subject to numerous parody renditions by Xanu’s artistic community.

	Many of Xanu Prime’s expat and immigrant communities can be found in Nouvelle-Rochelle too, with the city having districts where these communities have naturally coalesced. '''Vysokatown''', '''Little Assunzione''', and the '''Greentree District''', home to Xanu Prime’s Fisanduhian community and seat of the Fisanduhian government in exile, are officially designated districts of Nouvelle-Rochelle, though other immigrant communities live here too, with each having unique twists on their native cultures that have fused with Xanu’s own. One of the most famous of Nouvelle-Rochelle’s districts though is the '''New Columbia District'''. Formerly the center of Nouvelle-Rochelle’s American colonist community in the immediate post-civil war years, ~~'''~~New Columbia~~'''~~ is now one of the leisure and art capitals of Xanu Prime. The most striking of its landmarks is Hastings Colosseum, affectionately referred to as “The Hall of Columns,” a gigantic 300,000-seat open-air stadium built from steel, concrete, marble, and glass in a modernist-classical fusion style which serves as the primary venue of Nouvelle-Rochelle for everything from cricket and football games, to stadium concerts, to trade exhibitions. It began construction in 2442 and was completed in 2444, just in time for Xanu Prime’s hosting of the Coalition Cup football tournament. It is the largest building of its kind in the Coalition and is the home stadium for Xanu Prime’s national football and cricket teams. Aside from just the stadium however, the New Columbia district is filled with greenery and is the home to the Columbia Spice Market, the largest open-air street market on Xanu Prime where vendors from not just all over Xanu but all over the Coalition can be found selling their wares. Surrounded by bars and restaurants on all sides, the market explodes with shoppers and sellers alike most during game days when fans from the stadium flood the market after games looking for food, drink, and generally a good time.

	There is an entire district of the city devoted to the Coalition of Colonies government as well, the '''Xansan District'''. Within it is the Coalition of Colonies First Speaker’s residence, many of the CoC’s government agencies, the Coalition’s Representative Summit, and the Coalition of Colonies Supreme Court. This district is well-known across Xanu for its excellent showcasing of modernist architecture. This area of Nouvelle-Rochelle is not only notable as being the functional governmental and administrative capital of the Coalition of Colonies, but it is also where the Treaty of Xansan, the agreement which ended the Interstellar War, was signed. Xanu’s own government shares a district bordering the Xansan District, the '''Capital District''', and instead has its own distinctive architectural style, simply known as the Xanan Style, that is the result of the fusion of its founding cultures of French, Indian, Dutch, Pakistani, and Belgian. Multiple museums and art galleries bankrolled by the Xanan government can be found here, with these establishments possessing some of the most eclectic art collections in human space. The largest of these and perhaps most well known is the '''All-Xanu Eloise Brel Gallery''' where works from within Xanu itself to as far away as the Solarian Core and even old pieces from Earth’s Renaissance era can be found on display for the public to see free of charge. Another building of note is the '''Crystal Lights Mosque''', the largest mosque on Xanu Prime. It is quite striking in its construction, being a tall geodesic dome constructed of glass and steel with traditional stone minarets surrounding the mosque’s main building. It was built with the assistance of Damascene architects from Elyra in 2390 and can serve up to forty-thousand worshippers at once.

	Another of the city’s most notable districts is the '''Olympique-Saraswati District''', a picturesque low-rise district known for its revivalist Indian and French fusion architecture. The main draw of the district though is the three massive universities which find themselves here: '''Université Olympique - Nouvelle-Rochelle (UONR)''', '''Saraswati College (SC)''', and '''Vaeghts Medical School (VMS)'''. UONR is a state-owned university founded in that is the largest on Xanu Prime and has an in-person student body numbering over two-hundred thousand, with millions more online students. Its standards for admission are moderate, meaning those with slightly above-average academic records applying to the school will probably get in. The school is well known across Xanu and the Orion Spur for its programs in business and aerospace engineering, though it is quite possible to get an accredited and respectable degree in nearly any subject here. The school’s campus is surrounded by bars and restaurants, and is known to be a cultural center of Xanu Prime where new music and food trends come from. The university has a list of notable alumni the size of the coalition itself, and tens of thousands of foreign students from throughout the CoC attend the university every year, giving it the most diverse campus on Xanu Prime and possibly in human space. Saraswati College, named for the Hindu goddess of knowledge, is perhaps the opposite of UONR in many ways. It is the oldest continually operating university on Xanu Prime, being founded in 2199 as a private college, and prides itself on its exclusivity. Admission standards for Saraswati College are ludicrously high and only those which show near perfect academic records are allowed to attend. Its campus embodies an Indian-revivalist look in style with many of its buildings resembling intricate art pieces more than schoolhouses or academic complexes. The some 10,000 students attending Saraswati College are given the best education that money can buy on Xanu Prime and it is particularly well-known for its law school and physics research institute. Graduating from Saraswati College is an incredibly prestigious feat, and its alumni have gone on to hold positions of power in the Xanan government and some of its most influential corporations. The last of the big three universities in the Olympique-Saraswati district is the Vaeghts Medical School, the premier medical school of Xanu Prime. It was founded by businesswoman Aimée Vaeghts in 2389 after she had made her fortune in the chemical and biomedical industry through the company she founded, Boelens & Vaeghts Chemical. The university not only is a medical school, but also a hospital that serves the Olympique-Saraswati district of Nouvelle-Rochelle, a trait it uses to great effect for teaching its students with hands-on experience. While it is new in comparison to the other universities in its district, VMS takes after both UONR and SC in some ways. Its standards for admission are decently high, with potential students needing well above average, but not perfect academic records to be admitted and it also has a large portion of its student body be foreigners from around the Coalition coming to the school to receive a quality education in biomedicine.

The district has styles ranging from lavish baroque era buildings to more austere or rococo-revivalist 19th and early 20th century styles, and even has buildings which take their inspiration from as far back as the medieval era such as the '''Our Lady of Sorrows Cathedral''', a colossal gothic-style cathedral built between 2285 and 2299 in remembrance of the fallen of the two wars Xanu Prime experienced during the 23rd century. Its graveyard houses the largest statue of the Virgin Mary in human space, the eponymous Our Lady of Xanu, which stands at one hundred meters tall, completed in 2994 during the cathedral’s construction. It’s an exceptionally famous piece of Xanan art and images of it have been subject to numerous parody renditions by Xanu’s artistic community.

	Many of Xanu Prime’s expat and immigrant communities can be found in Nouvelle-Rochelle too, with the city having districts where these communities have naturally coalesced. '''Vysokatown''', '''Little Assunzione'''~~, and '''Little Gadpathur''' (populated mostly by Gadpathuri exiles)~~, and the '''Greentree District''', home to Xanu Prime’s Fisanduhian community and seat of the Fisanduhian government in exile, are officially designated districts of Nouvelle-Rochelle, though other immigrant communities liver here too, with each having unique twists on their native cultures that have fused with Xanu’s own. One of the most famous of Nouvelle-Rochelle’s districts though is the '''New Columbia District'''. Formerly the center of Nouvelle-Rochelle’s American colonist community in the immediate post-civil war years, New Columbia is now one of the leisure and art capitals of Xanu Prime. The most striking of its landmarks is Hastings Colosseum, affectionately referred to as “The Hall of Columns,” a gigantic 300,000-seat open-air stadium built from steel, concrete, marble, and glass in a modernist-classical fusion style which serves as the primary venue of Nouvelle-Rochelle for everything from cricket and football games, to stadium concerts, to trade exhibitions. It began construction in 2442 and was completed in 2444, just in time for Xanu Prime’s hosting of the Coalition Cup football tournament. It is the largest building of its kind in the Coalition and is the home stadium for Xanu Prime’s national football and cricket teams. Aside from just the stadium however, the New Columbia district is filled with greenery and is the home to the Columbia Spice Market, the largest open-air street market on Xanu Prime where vendors from not just all over Xanu but all over the Coalition can be found selling their wares. Surrounded by bars and restaurants on all sides, the market explodes with shoppers and sellers alike most during game days when fans from the stadium flood the market after games looking for food, drink, and generally a good time.

	There is an entire district of the city devoted to the Coalition of Colonies government as well, the '''Xansan District'''. Within it is the Coalition of Colonies First Speaker’s residence, many of the CoC’s government agencies, the Coalition’s Representative Summit, and the Coalition of Colonies Supreme Court. This district is well-known across Xanu for its excellent showcasing of modernist architecture. This area of Nouvelle-Rochelle is not only notable as being the functional governmental and administrative capital of the Coalition of Colonies, but it is also where the Treaty of Xansan, the agreement which ended the Interstellar War, was signed. Xanu’s own government shares a district bordering the Xansan District, the '''Capital District''', and instead has its own distinctive architectural style, simply known as the Xanan Style, that is the result of the fusion of its founding cultures of French, Indian, Dutch, Pakistani, and Belgian. Multiple museums and art galleries bankrolled by the Xanan government can be found here, with these establishments possessing some of the most eclectic art collections in human space. The largest of these and perhaps most well known is the '''All-Xanu Eloise Brel Gallery''' where works from within Xanu itself to as far away as the Solarian Core and even old pieces from Earth’s Renaissance era can be found on display for the public to see free of charge. Another building of note is the '''Crystal Lights Mosque''', the largest mosque on Xanu Prime. It is quite striking in its construction, being a tall geodesic dome constructed of glass and steel with traditional stone minarets surrounding the mosque’s main building. It was built with the assistance of Damascene architects from Elyra in 2390 and can serve up to forty-thousand worshippers at once.

	Pataliputra embodies a “work hard, play hard” type of culture as along with its heavy industry, the city’s '''Neon District''' has some of Xanu’s most exclusive and lavish nightclubs. The largest of these is the Idris-operated '''Seventh Heaven''' and is a huge 27 storey high-rise of a club with 33 bars, 21 dancefloors, four swimming pools, a casino, and two restaurants, one at the base of the structure and one at the summit. It also has an artificial waterfall that flows off of its northside down into one of the establishment’s swimming pools below. Establishments with less prestige (and those that fit cheaper tastes) also dot the cityscape, too so truly anyone can come to Pataliputra for a night out, a weekend of fun, or a month-long booze cruise. Among other notable attractions here is '''Umbrella Row''', a series of narrow streets all of which are filled with open-air outdoor bars and restaurants that stay open until 4am. The area received its name from the large umbrellas that were fastened above some of the bars in order to provide shade or protection from the rain, but now many of the umbrellas are just there for aesthetic purposes since the bars and restaurants have since acquired awnings or roofs. Different breweries test their products here first before shipping them to other places on Xanu Prime, and the area is also well-known throughout the Xanan film scene for being where some of the biggest names in Xanu’s film industry, directors, actors or otherwise, got their starts. Accordingly, some of the planet’s largest film studios are located here in a district of the city commonly referred to as '''“Pataliwood.”'''		Pataliputra embodies a “work hard, play hard” type of culture as along with its heavy industry, the city’s '''Neon District''' has some of Xanu’s most exclusive and lavish nightclubs.

	Pataliputra’s '''Admiralty District''' is quite notable as well. The district is known for the majority of its buildings being painted a light navy-blue color or made from materials in the same color. The tradition began with the '''All-Xanu Interstellar Naval College''', the centerpiece of the district, when it was being built after the interstellar war and only blue bricks could be requisitioned for the buildings. The color as stuck and has since been adopted by the rest of the district and has become ubiquitous to a point where local ordinances dictate that buildings new cannot be built in the area unless they have at least 30% of their outward surface area covered by a shade of blue similar to the original “Admiralty Blue.” The All-Xanu Naval College itself, as the name may imply, is the premier university for Spacefleet officers on Xanu Prime. Construction on the university began in 2388, one year after the end of the Interstellar War. Officers from not just Xanu Prime, but the Coalition at large have attended the College and its graduates usually go on to find productive and lucrative careers in the armed forces or other industries which require similarly organizational, martial, or spacefaring skillsets. On the outskirts of the Admiralty district sits a veritable ring of bars often called the '''“Whiskey Circle”''' by the locals. These dive bars exist almost solely for the purpose of serving cheap drinks and hot food to Naval College cadets, but they’ve become a popular destination for Pataliputrans in general to have a fun night on the town on the cheap.

Another standout district neighboring the Admiralty District is the '''Bamdha District''', also known as Mokammeljela, a small yet densely populated area of the city mostly inhabited by Gadpathurian Exiles and their descendants.

	The city is one of contrasts but manages to stay both an industrial center and the place to be for the latest in nightlife action on Xanu Prime. Their All-Xanu Ultraleague Team is '''Admiralty AC''' and their colors are blue and white. Admiral AC has the honor of holding the most Ultraleague titles as of Spring 2464 with a grand total of 36, their last win being in 2464 itself in a hotly contested 2-1 overtime match against Himavat City FC. Their Alpha Cricket League team is owned by the same organization that owns the football team and is also called Admiralty AC. Similarly, their colors are also blue and white.

	The shimmering and vibrant planet of '''Xanu Prime''' (pronounced Ksa-noo), officially the All-Xanu Republic, is the beating heart of the [[Coalition of Colonies]]. In nearly all ways, economic, political, and cultural, Xanu Prime holds almost unmatched influence over the rest of the Coalition. It is the most populated planet in the Coalition and is the seat of its national government, but it is so much more beyond that. It is a cosmopolitan and multicultural hub where nearly anyone from across the Orion Spur can be found, a cornerstone not just in the Coalition but in the galactic community as a whole, and home to a thriving culture and democratic tradition which, along with the dedication and hard work of its citizens, has cemented its position of leadership and wealth which it currently enjoys.

	The second largest of Xanu Prime’s cities, Pataliputra was founded in 2191 and serves as the largest port on Xanu and the largest in the Coalition of Colonies. It is only surpassed by Callisto in the amount of cargo traffic that moves in and out of its massive piers. Because of this, it is the headquarters of the Xanan and Coalition of Colonies admiralty and has a long-standing spacefaring tradition that stretches back centuries. The Xanan Space Travel Museum, a colossal structure dedicated to telling not just Xanu’s, but humanity’s history with space travel is in the city and draws in millions of tourists annually and pays homage to this heritage.

	Pataliputra is also the site of the Patali-Ram Temple, a large Hindu temple dedicated to Ram, the eighth avatar of Vishnu. It was built by Xanu’s original Indian colonists from 2197 to 2215, and was constructed with aims to use the most authentic methods possible in an attempt to emulate traditional Indian stone temple architecture. It is a holy site for many of the planet’s Hindu population as it was said that during the Xanan Civil War and Interstellar War that not even a scratch came to the temple or those seeking refuge inside it despite the damage the wars brought to the rest of the city. Another notable feature of the Pataliputran cityscape are the city’s walls which date back to the Xanan Civil War. While many cities have walls such as these on Xanu prime, Pataliputra’s are the planet's most intact, with over 80% of the original walls and gun emplacements still being maintained as a memorial to the fallen of the Interstellar War and Xanan Civil War. The city’s growth has expanded far past these walls since the post-Interstellar War reconstruction efforts, yet the structures still serve as an unofficial symbol for Pataliputra and its people.

	Much of Xanu’s heavy industry has its home in Pataliputra as well, having moved here after the Interstellar War. Large factories and foundries can be found in the city’s industrial quarter and on its outskirts. Pataliputra houses Xanu’s largest shipyard as well, the République Ship Foundry, a sprawling complex owned by the Markhor Interstellar Logistics Group that takes up an entire district of the city and employs nearly five percent of its population. Additionally, what few IPCs are produced on Xanu Prime are made in Pataliputra, though Xanan IPC manufacturing has shrunk significantly since Konyang’s admittance to the Coalition of Colonies in 2463.

Establishments with less prestige (and those that fit cheaper tastes) also dot the cityscape, too so truly anyone can come to Pataliputra for a night out, a weekend of fun, or a month-long booze cruise. Among other notable attractions here is '''Umbrella Row''', a series of narrow streets all of which are filled with open-air outdoor bars and restaurants that stay open until 4am. The area received its name from the large umbrellas that were fastened above some of the bars in order to provide shade or protection from the rain, but now many of the umbrellas are just there for aesthetic purposes since the bars and restaurants have since acquired awnings or roofs. Different breweries test their products here first before shipping them to other places on Xanu Prime, and the area is also well-known throughout the Xanan film scene for being where some of the biggest names in Xanu’s film industry, directors, actors or otherwise, got their starts. Accordingly, some of the planet’s largest film studios are located here in a district of the city commonly referred to as '''“Pataliwood.”'''

	Pataliputra’s '''Admiralty District''' is quite notable as well. The district is known for the majority of its buildings being painted a light navy-blue color or made from materials in the same color. The tradition began with the All-Xanu Interstellar Naval College, the centerpiece of the district, when it was being built after the interstellar war and only blue bricks could be requisitioned for the buildings. The color as stuck and has since been adopted by the rest of the district and has become ubiquitous to a point where local ordinances dictate that buildings new cannot be built in the area unless they have at least 30% of their outward surface area covered by a shade of blue similar to the original “Admiralty Blue.” The All-Xanu Naval College itself, as the name may imply, is the premier university for Spacefleet officers on Xanu Prime. Construction on the university began in 2388, one year after the end of the Interstellar War. Officers from not just Xanu Prime, but the Coalition at large have attended the College and its graduates usually go on to find productive and lucrative careers in the armed forces or other industries which require similarly organizational, martial, or spacefaring skillsets. On the outskirts of the Admiralty district sits a veritable ring of bars often called the “Whiskey Circle” by the locals. These dive bars exist almost solely for the purpose of serving cheap drinks and hot food to Naval College cadets, but they’ve become a popular destination for Pataliputrans in general to have a fun night on the town on the cheap.

	The city is one of contrasts but manages to stay both an industrial center and the place to be for the latest in nightlife action on Xanu Prime. Their All-Xanu Ultraleague Team is '''Admiralty AC''' and their colors are blue and white. Admiral AC has the honor of holding the most Ultraleague titles as of Spring 2464 with a grand total of 36, their last win being in 2464 itself in a hotly contested 2-1 overtime match against Himavat City FC. Their Alpha Cricket League team is owned by the same organization that owns the football team and is also called Admiralty AC. Similarly, their colors are also blue and white.

	Xanan Culture and Xanan Society are very rich and detailed topics which have a variety of facets and great depth. Xanan culture takes cues from the most prominent of its founding cultures and has a society that places great ~~emphasis~~ on the family unit ~~as the building block of society~~. Xanan culture is collective, in the sense that people are encouraged to watch out for one another and the general cultural mindset is to see oneself as a meaningful member of their community. Xanan society is very diverse and multicultural and the planet has numerous immigrant communities that help make-up the planet’s dynamic socio-cultural ecosystem. Xanu Prime hosts a variety of different religions as well, the most prominent being Christianity, Hinduism, and Islam. Its society is not perfect however and has its issues, chief among them being a growing income inequality, anti-immigrant sentiments, and tension over the planet’s place in the Coalition of Colonies. Xanan art and entertainment produced by Xanan companies is some of the most popular in human space, with Xanan films, Holovision programs, consumed throughout the Coalition of Colonies and human frontier. Xanan cuisine is something that the planet is famous for across the Orion Spur and some of its dishes are staples of fine-dining. Xanan architecture and fashion too are distinctive to the planet and have their own stories. Xanan sports are very popular on the planet as well, the most played and watched being football in the All-Xanu Ultraleague, and Class A Cricket in the Alphaleague. Details on all of these subjects and more on general life on Xanu Prime and the planet’s societal composition and issues can be found on the dedicated page for [[Xanan Life, Culture, and Society\|Xanan life, culture, and society]].

	Xanan society is one that values individual liberties while paying close attention to how these liberties can sometimes hurt society as a whole if taken too far. This can be reflected in their legal code. Xanu Prime has strong legal protections against government restrictions on speech, though things like hate speech and slander are still illegal. There is no state religion on Xanu Prime and Xanans are free to practice, or not practice, any religion they please. The country does have very strong secularism laws though, and bans government employees and government buildings from wearing or displaying religious symbols or forms of dress. Some decry this as an intrusion onto the religious freedoms of citizens, though the majority of Xanan society is in support of strong secularization laws. Private firearms ownership is permitted on Xanu Prime, however it is restricted. A Xanan citizen requires a government permit, background check, and legitimate reason (typically for hunting or home defense) before they are allowed to own a private firearm. They cannot carry their weapons in public and they cannot own fully automatic ballistic firearms or lethal-strength lasers or similar battery-powered weapons. Xanans have total freedom of movement throughout the All-Xanan Republic, and have various legal protections against external intrusions on individual privacy, both physical and digital.
