General Description

The planet Vulcan is an M-class desert planet, original world of the Vulcans and the ancestors of the Rihannsu.

Political

It is a founding planet of the United Federation of Planets. Following the OOR attack on Earth, the Federation Council relocated to Vulcan, making it the de facto UFP capital.

Geographical

Though a large-scale desert currently occupies about 96% of the world's surface, fossil records have determined that early Vulcan possessed 90% water along with a few islands with nothing but a hot sea present on the planet. Thousands of years later, around the time of tribal proto-Vulcan development, 40 Eridani A erupt in a massive solar flare that scorched the planet's surface which resulted in many native creatures dying and most water evaporating.

It has considerably higher gravity and thinner atmosphere than Earth. The climate is harsh; most of the surface consists of large deserts or mountain ranges, along with scattered small seas. Desert areas are prone to large amounts of heat, light and electrical sand fire storms.
