Life

The government ruled over the planet with a hard hand. People disappeared and the movement was controlled by checkpoints. Child work was widespread and the population lived under harsh conditions. At age seven, Tanaka was ordered to work at the Airbol plant, cleaning scrubber systems, working six days a week.
After the takeover of StarCitizen:Lane Corpos, life conditions deteriorated much further.
