Terrain
Uncultivated, the world of Gault resembles the endless, sometimes rolling, expanses of Ukraine, Poland or Iowa- though noticeably warmer than any of those. Gault has very little axial tilt or seasonal variation. It's wide open plains are semi-arid but laced with rivers and lakes which farmers and ranchers use for irrigation and watering livestock.
Only small portions of Gault are populated, yet the farms on Gault as enormous, manned by automated artificial farming machines. Less than eight percent of Gault has been modified in any way: much of it remains open grasslands and scrub native to the planet.
Gault's terrain varies from tropics to poles with different varieties of grass and scrub. Like many worlds, the further inside a continent, the drier the landscape becomes but Gault has few true deserts- at least not sandy or rocky ones. Most deserts on Gault are scrublands. Marshes are very common on Gault, particularly around bodies of water and near the inland seas. Trees are not a natural phenomenon on Gault: all trees on Gault were transplanted for agricultural purposes and most of them are fruit or nut-bearing varieties.
