Acamar�s climate did not deter colonists. Though it had three continents and a very large island group, only the continent of Katenga was suitable for colonization. Even though it was situated in the planet�s equatorial region, even this continent wasn�t immune from the winter storms. Katenga has two large valleys where most of the planet�s population is located. Trans-Mahn is the southern valley, where the Mahn River flows and the city of Huss was founded. The Osz Forest covers the northern approach to the valley, where the Otal foothills separate Trans-Mahn from Tomahn Moraine. Tomahn is the larger of the two valleys. The capital city Kalskag is located in the northeastern part of the valley. The second-largest city of Flat is southwest of the capital near the Tokal Mountains, where a large silver mine is located. Acamar�s remaining continents of Tamarack and Asta are in the northern hemisphere where they are frozen year round, making them impossible to settle.
Acamar�s planetary system has a large asteroid belt, called Illeudian, where mining operations are headquartered. GM and Taijian Petrochemicals have vested interest in Acamar because they have helped the world recover from the chaos of the last few years. When the Blakist forces landed on Acamar, the defenders where ordered to lay down their arms without firing a shot�Blakist forces had infiltrated the controlling military during the upheaval of the Chaos March. This subterfuge saved Acamar from suffering the full, devastating effects of the Jihad.
