A Guide given to employees of the NavKor 36 Syndicate
Please note: Since many of our employees are from the Milky Way galaxy and are familiar with Earth, there are numerous comparisons to Earth given in this guide.
This guide will be updated and expanded upon as more is learned about the planet, its inhabitants and its culture.

Tynnara is a planet that is located in the Expansion Region of space, near Tynna. It is an M class planet, with an atmosphere that is suitable for most humanoid races. It is the approximate size of Earth, and the gravity is also very close to that of Earth's.
Tynnara is the location of the base of operations for the NavKor 36 Syndicate.

There are five planets in the Tynnaran solar system. The planets, in order from the Tynnaran sun (which is a yellow dwarf) are as follows:
Xin - a small, rocky, blazing hot, barren planet. It is close to the Tynnaran sun.
Bij'kaa - larger than Xin, farther from the Tynnaran sun, it is not within the habitable zone for the sun, but it does have an atmosphere.
Tynnara - rocky, covered with water and several large land masses, it orbits well within the habitable zone.
Biet and Kiet - this binary planet consists of 2 gas giants that have an orbit outside of the habitable zone of the Tynnaran sun.
Tynnara is mostly a tropical world, with very small polar ice caps and some more temperate regions near the poles. It has two moons: One is approximately the size of Earth's moon and is called Nâu. It's orbit is similar to the lunar orbit around Earth. The other is much larger and orbits at a much greater distance. The larger moon is called Xanh, and it is habitable. Xahn is large enough that if it did not revolve around Tynnara, it would be considered a planet in its own right. It is 2/3 the size of Tynnara, and the gravity is about 3/4 of that of Tynnara.

Sentient Species
There are two native sentient species on Tynnara. The species with the largest population is human in appearance, and referred to as Tynarrans. There is another sentient species, called the Kaa'nei, that has not been sighted by any NavKor 36 Syndicate employee as of this writing. It has only been mentioned by Tynnarans, and has been deemed worth mentioning in case future contact is established with representatives of this species.
Language
The Tynnaran language is called Tynarra'a, and has been described as sounding like a mixture of German and Vietnamese. Most Tynnarans also speak Basic.
Vocabulary (will be added to periodically):
Hurricane/typhoon - toidich'aa
Hello - Chaobuoi!
Thank you - Camonch
Goodbye - Tambekkt
Boss - Bonnamsau
Really? - Tat saoch?
Political
For the most part, Tynnara has avoided affiliation with either the Empire or the Rebellion. It is this neutrality that made it so attractive for NavKor 36 Syndicate to establish its base of operations here.
The NavKor 36 Syndicate is considered the major political influence on Tynnara. Although Navaar and Kor do not participate directly in politics, their opinions are sought, and they have a great deal of clout.
There are no Imperial or Rebel facilities on Tynnara. No Rebel bases, no Imperial bases.
Flora and Fauna
There is lush flora on Tynnara, and the fauna range from small rodent-like creatures to very large predatory and herbivorous species.
There are all of the familiar sub-families present on Tynnara - canine, feline, equine, avian, etc.
Individual names and descriptions will be added as they become available.
Places
There are several places that have been mentioned in canon RP.
The bar/pub that is near NavKor 36 HQ is called "The Rusty Droid."
There are several restaurants and cafes near HQ, but names have not been established.
