Force Nexus:
Size: Planet Wide - The planet is blanketed in a darkside force nexus due to the amount of Sith spirits, Sith rituals and dark magic that was conducted on the planet through the years. Some Rituals were done so much it cracked the atmosphere all over the planet. The Darkside nexus enhances darkside users powers, in certain areas such as the caves and the sacred temple, and a few other places, technology won't work. The Darkside nexus also makes any lightsider feel weak also could consume them in the darkside.
Intent: To have a planet that is completely devoured and devoted to the darkside. A planet that has been so warped and twisted and corrupted by the darkside of the force to the point that even lightsiders would have an issue being on the planet without being consumed by the darkside.

For those enlisted in the Jen'ari Imperial Military would patrol Akvase city or other various outpost through the planet, others would be training or maintaining their jobs. Those that were Sith within the ranks of Jen'ari Sith were usually doing something to better themselves or gain new power. There was also shopping at the various stores, maintaining farm lands or mining ore or crystals within the scattered caves and try to sell their findings to try and make a living.
• Government: The planet is controlled by a Magocratic theocratic empire
• Affiliation:
The Jen'ari Empire
• Wealth: medium
Wealth is medium range due to the constant sales of crystals, the money coming in from several businesses such as casinos and shops and the various Cantinas, as well as farm lands selling crops. The Jen'ari Empire taxes each business to ensure the Empire always gets a cut of the profit to further advance the wealth of the planet and the Empire.

The Jen'ari Empire doesn't tolerate law breaking within it's main cities and are usually met with severe disciplinary action.
• Military: The Jen'ari Imperial military patrols the planet and enforces the Empire's law with an Iron Fist.
The Jen'ari Empire Imperial Sith Troopers keep peace within the planet as well as serve over as the backbone of the major troop force of the Jen'ari Empire Imperial Military infantry unit. The Jen'ari Empire Imperial Navy operates in orbit of the planet with the Sith Armada, a fleet of various ships of various sizes.
• Technology: The technology galaxy on Jena'tes is kept up to date with the rest of the galaxy, but due to the planet being so far out on the outer rim and keeping a low profile they are last to hear about new advanced technology. But the Jen'ari Empire Science Institute is always doing research to keep up with the galaxy and to discover more advanced technology.
Immediately following the Hyperspace Wars Vitiate took control of the Sith Empire, for those who didn't wish to follow him left to build their own society. They discovered the planet Jena'tes and begin a society of their very own. The Sith formed a small government to rule over the mass and lived in peace hidden from the events of the Great Galactic War and the cold war. The Eternal Empire came, and valkorian discovered the planet, but with the help of the alliance the Sith defeated the eternal Empire. The alliance left the Sith on jena'tes alone and the Sith continued life. All the Sith that died or does die are buried in the Sith Boneyard, the more high ranking Sith had elaborate tombs while others were buried with a simple headstone. The Sith would travel to the tundra regions to gather crystals for lightsaber and for profit. Many Sith conducted rituals and arcane magic in the Darkside of the force which cracked the Atmosphere causing perpetual electrical storms and rain. Sun hardly could break through the storm clouds, only enough to support plant life which the planet mainly only had plants and trees that could thrive at night.
There always being so much Darkside use on the planet caused a Force nexus of the Darkside that blanketed the entire planet, as well as the spirits of dead Sith always looming around the planet, as well their bodies being buried on the planet. When the rule of two was created, the planet was thought to be abandoned as no activity came from the planet and the Sith on the planet continued to grow in secret. Although the darkside nexus was felt by Jedi, they only assumed it was because of all the darkside spirits around the Sith boneyard, so the planet was left alone and forgotten about. Darth Sidious visited the planet after order 66 and declared everyone on the planet simply Darkside users and not Sith, he recruited several of them to be Sith inquisitors to hunt down Jedi. After the fall of the galactic Empire, the planet again started to reconnect with the rest of the galaxy simply to trade. Upon the rise of Snoke and the first order, the planet population again went quiet. Some time near the One Sith and rise of Darth Krayt, some Sith from the planet left to join Darth Krayt. After Darth Krayt fell the planet started to come alive to the rest of the galaxy but only enough to not cause a disturbance or a threat.
Finally came the gulag plague, otherwise known as the 400 year darkness. The planet fell into dispair without communications and travel was severely restricted. With the lack of supplies and resources needed, the Sith begin turn on each other trying to steal what little resources were left and fighting over what was rationed out. Many Sith and citizens were affected and contaminated by the plague. Multiple Sith and citizens became sick and tons died from the plague. The planet was in chaos for 400 years. Somehow the population survived the 400 year darkness but the fighting continued to ensue until the Jen'ari Empire came to the planet and told the population what the Jen'ari Empire stood for and what's it's goals were. This brought an end to the 400 year planet wide civil war in most cases, there were some small pocketed groups that resented the Jen'ari Empire and caused them distress. The Jen'ari Empire made work constantly fighting to eradicate the traitorous Sith.
The Jen'ari Empire helped rebuild several buildings and major locations, as well as built the new capital city of the planet, Akvase City. A statute was built of Darth Vyrassu in the city plaza, as well Vyrassu had the grand Citadel to be designed by the exact same designs of Vitiate's Citadel on Kaas City, Dromund Kaas. The planets population grew bigger than it was, a massive Sith Society based alone under the leadership of the Immortal Dark Lord Darth Vyrassu and his Empire. The planets Sith Society population continues to grow to this day and the Jen'ari Empire restricts infighting, a crime punishable by death. If Sith had a dispute between each other they were allowed to fight with permission from the Dark Council. Although this law was in place, Sith still in secret sometimes fought over the others power or because of common differences. The Jen'ari Imperial Military though did try and enforce the laws as much as they could.
Darth Vyrassu launched a campaign to eradicate any that opposed the Jen'ari Empire, he was well launched a Campaign simply known as
Cloning Campaign to build a massive Clone army of Sith Troopers for the Empire. Vyrassu even used force sight to see into the past to see why the planet was so heavily covered in the Darkside, he had discovered thousands of Sith have died on this planet and their spirits linger, hundreds of Sith are buried in the wet desert valley canyons, as well numerous Sith Rituals had been conducted all over the planet, in one case these rituals cracked the atmosphere and caused heavy electrical storms all over the planet causing permanent rain or in the tundras case snowfall.
