How the Planet Functions/ Where is the Planet

How the Planet Functions:

You should also try to get a macro sense of the planet, where you consider if and how the planet exists within a larger system of planets. Maybe the planet is light years away from the nearest planet or perhaps it is under the domain of a larger planet in the solar system.

You should consider where the planet is located exactly within a larger system.The rules of the planet may also be based on its position in a solar system, where it is limited by a larger planet or in control of smaller planets. Think about the positioning of the planet in relation to other planets and celestial bodies, such as stars, meteorites, and black holes.

Examples:

This planet is 1.5x the size of earth. It has 2.40x earth gravity.

This planet has 14 moons and 21-hour days. It is in the Neogene period. It is 2.1x the size of earth and is far from its sun.

This planet has 3 moons, an exaggerated ellipsoid orbit and an axial tilt of 45.9°. It is in the Quaternary period and is 0.5x the size of earth. It is 72% land mass with 4 continents.

This planet is 80% land mass with 10 continents, is close to its sun and is 0.3x the size of earth. It is in the Cretaceous period.

This planet has 7 moons. It has a 212-day long year, 29-hour days and 2.71x earth gravity.

 This planet is in the Neogene period. It has a 192-day long year. It has an axial tilt of 75.7°, 3.94x earth gravity and 17-hour days.

Where is the Planet:

Location is key.
