Lo (Corel III) is the largest populated planet in the Corel system, United Empire of Earth (UEE), and is represented by one Senator. As a major population center on the border between the UEE and the Banu Protectorate, it is a hub of trade and commerce between the two civilizations and is home to both Humans and Banu.
The largest shipping and customs center, New Junction, is located in one of Lo's hottest regions. Meticulous inspection of goods that pass through the planet combined with frequent dust storms often cause long backups in traffic, sometimes requiring haulers to stay overnight.
