| Ever since the [[history_introduction#the_apocalypse war|Apocalypse War]], Luna has been the traditional center of recom civilization. Luna has always had a very diverse population with all types of recoms mixing freely, and a high tolerance for mutants, eccentric lifestyles, and exotic subcultures which might not be so easily tolerated on -- for example -- [[Mars]]. Luna also has a history of stable government and the rule of law, and a strong record of civil rights. However, its government tends towards socialist programs, centralized planning and extensive bureaucracy. The Luna Council has 15 members, including eight-year councilors [[Errol]] Olne and [[Cleveland]] Blake. | Ever since the [[history_introduction#the_apocalypse war|Apocalypse War]], Luna has been the traditional center of recom civilization.

| Due to the enclosed habitat nature of the lunar colonies, a number of laws and customs are present on Luna that aren't generally found on planets with atmospheres. Recycling and waste management are considered on-par with life support, and wasteful use of resources is frowned upon, an attitude that dates back to the days immediately following the Apocalypse War. Smoking, while not outlawed, is also frowned upon, and in some places will earn the offender a punch in the nose. Actions or items that threaten the integrity of the colony's physical structures, especially in areas where vacuum exists on the other side of a wall, are covered by a whole section of lunar law, and offenders will usually have to deal with an angry mob BEFORE the Lunar Police Force arrives to handle the situation. | Due to the enclosed habitat nature of the lunar colonies, a number of laws and customs are present on Luna that aren't generally found on planets with atmospheres.
