Oscosis

Oscosis(pronounced /Oh'scoh'siss/) was a planet in the Narsudian System. It was a larger planet than usual, having a diameter of twenty thousand meters. It was an tropical planet, being covered in rainforests and oceans, but was still a major trade post and had large cities scattered across it's surface.

Rainforests
A large portion of Oscosis had tropical rainforests. This provided for a large variety of wildlife, as many creatures habited the planet. The rainforests also provided excellent sources of fresh water, because of the excess rain those areas recieved in comparison with the other regions.

Unfortunately, when the planet was going through it's stages of population, large portions of the rainforests were destroyed to make way for cities. This included destroyed the colossal rainforest trees that grew up to 120 meters tall.

Caves
Buried deep within the rainforests lie many caves. This caves provided sanctuary to the many species of the rainforest, and were even used to hide from predators. On Oscosis, there were an estimated 2,355,000 caves, but know one ever knew for sure because no one had ever thoroughly explored the planet.

Fresh Water
Most of Oscosis's fresh water lie within the rainforest. However, there were many manmade lakes, ponds, and resevoirs used for irrigation, fishing, and other things. A large part of Oscosis was composed of a system of rivers connected by manmade canals. These rivers provided ship transport throughout the planet for trade and transportation.

Oscosis's largest river was the Nardaznak River in the Southwest rainforest of the eastern hemisphere. This river ran for 12,000 miles and was a quarter mile wide at it's widest point. The Nardaznak was connected to the oceans by many other rivers and tributaries, so this river provided fast access to any area on the planet.

Sea Water
In addition to the lakes, rivers, and rainforests, there was many seas, oceans, and saltwater lakes on the planet as well. The largest ocean had an area of almost 100 million square miles, contained about 300 billion gallons of water, and contained about 30,000 islands.

In addition to oceans, Oscosis also had saltwater lakes, seas, and rivers.
