Discordia

Located near the very tip of one of the outer spiral arms of the Milky Way Galaxy, Discordia orbits binary stars which the natives refer to as the Sacred Chao, because of the symbol it resembles.

Discordia completely lacks government and people pretty much do whatever they feel like and are very chilled about it all. They live in small communes of 20-100 people enjoying each others' company and moving between the communes whenever they feel like it.

The general temperament of worshippers of the Goddess Eris means that there have never been any wars since the foundation of the community, since wars are "a bad trip" man, but there are fourteen annual Tomfoolery Days upon which communities are permitted to play dirty and humorous tricks on each other. Somehow the place continues to run, probably due to the abundance of easily reachable food and inhabitable caves making it incredibly easy for everyone to live there.

The population of Discorida is kept low by the fact that most people feel it’s a little too much hassle to have kids until it feels right for one to do so. The planet has remained a tropical paradise, as the Discordians have an intense dislike for concrete and other things that make things and places unpretty. Such things may induce very bad trips, therefore an attempt is made to keep the places they like good-trip inducing, full of happy things and pretty flowers and beautiful flowing lines. What technology they have is maintained by people who really really, like messing about with technology and is therefore very, very good.

The Discordians travel across the planet on the giant flying giraffe-creatures which roam the lower plains. This usually makes perfect sense to them, as at any one point at least 50% of the population is absolutely stoned off their heads on something.
