Page "Liaden universe" Paragraph 34

Home planet known as " Terra ".

As remarked above, there is a brief reference to the possibility that this planet is possibly the fourth of that name.

At least one prior Terra would have been destroyed along with the war-torn universe / Galaxy from which mankind fled in Crystal Dragon.

From cultural references, familiar English names, and references to regional linguistic dialects that appear in the core books, it seems likely that this Terra is nonetheless our own Earth.

There appears to be some resentment that the " younger " races ( usually Liaden ) hold more power in the realm of shipping and commerce than Terra ; there is reference to at least one political party involved in less-than-legal operations.
