Changes

The third planet of the [[Eisn]] system, '''Remus''', or ''ch'Havran'' in the Rihan language, was one of the principal worlds of the [[Romulan Star Empire]] until it was devastated by the shockwave or a nearby supernova in 2411. It is a rich source of dilithium.

Remus is tidally locked, meaning that one side of its surface is always facing [[Eisn]]. This resulted in a temperature too extreme for habitation on the day side. The native species of the planet, the [[Reman]]s, or ''Havrannsu'', evolved to live on the much more tolerable night side.

[[Romulans]] began to settle on Remus in the Earth year 1062, establishing mining settlements and building cities in the planet's eternal twilight zone. At first, they lived peacefully with the Remans, but they quickly came to regard them as warlike and barbaric. After several uprisings and the additional fear of the Reman's telepathic abilities, Romulan law was militarily imposed, and Reman society was reorganized to serve the Romulan people.

The Empire's principal shipyards were located in orbit around Remus. Theijhoi was a large city located on the surface.

[[Romulus]] and Remus are often referred to as twin planets, but in reality they both orbit [[Eisn]] independently.
