	Kanon's like that exclusive club you wanted to get in to but just wasn't good enough, the waiting line was too long, so on and so forth. With transgenic augmentations that nearly mirror the baroque social pyramid, Kanon can be an intimidating place to be. If you're not ''someone'' you should be trying to claw you way up to ''being'' someone. An iterant wanderer like me gets no respect. Of course being on Kanon is not without its benefits; the government provides substantial amounts of funding to research and medical care is top-notch. And of course there are exceptions to the stereotype of ~~Kanonese~~ Tsundere (male or female). I gave the daughter of a nobleman horsey rides while she told me (oh so seriously) of her dreams to grow up to be a voice actor.

	She did it, too. Then turned around and joined the ZOCU Combined Militia as a pilot. Which is the other thing about Kanon. It's broken. Not in any physical way, but the scars from the war run a lot deeper than a lot of people want to admit or have came to terms with. The ~~Kanonese~~ are scared or angry or both and they haven't had the sort of cathartic release that'll let them move on. War otaku are a growing breed and I don't think it's a healthy reflection of society.		She did it, too. Then turned around and joined the ZOCU Combined Militia as a pilot.

	One of the more divergent bunch of colonists to come from dear old Earth, you've probably heard of Minkowski Transcendentalism before.

Like a lot of these sort they're kind of loopy - you've probably heard they see gravity as 'sin'. It's more nuanced and complex than that, but you get the gist. TBecause of this they're religiously compelled to live in zero-gravity habitats and except for a few old-timers, the population has been entirely modified to be quaddies - people with hands for feet. It can be disconcertening at first, but they're pretty han - dextrous.

			The EU is one of the 'big three' superpowers. That means that back in twenty-oh-eighty or so, they sat down with the proto-PACT and China and split known space in three - and then proceeded to colonize and develop the shit out of it. Today, there's something like a quarter-billion EU citizens living outside Sol - over a third of the Union's entire population.

			The thing that drives the EU is a collective effort to bring civilization to space. Nothing so crude as 'white man's burden' but concepts like the rule of law, human rights, health, economic prosperity and respect for the fellow man (they're basically everything the Rim ''isn't''). They can be a bit bureaucratic and officious too, it's how they smooth out life's rough edges.

	Corregidor is the best vacation spot in the PACT arm. I'm serious. The entire world's in what the geologists call hothouse highstand conditions, which means the climate is mild, the seas are warm and there's tons of islands. Not only that but the Corregidorans are simply some of the nicest people around. You move in and before you can order your robot to unpack your stuff your new neighbors have already shown up with a freshly-baked apple pie and invites for beer and BBQ later. They world hard and play hard, though all the best mod-cons mean they can stay at home and be neighborly while keeping in touch and doing work.		Corregidor is the best vacation spot in the PACT arm.

Of course being on Kanon is not without its benefits; the government provides substantial amounts of funding to research and medical care is top-notch.
