Aquitillan Lexicon (A Collaborative Worldbuilding Game)

Well, I was going to get my article finished today but ERRANDS got in the way. I hope to get it put up tomorrow because I've already written most of it.

I took some notes for things people should keep in mind when writing! These are developments we saw this turn:

SpoilerSociety:

Time measured in MEC (Marsuline Extended Calendar), presumably a year analogue. Ascending numbers indicate passing time; no negative numbers yet present, but numbers as low as 265 have appeared. AD also used in reference to a person's birth. Possibly indicates two disparate calendars (which would explain an individual born in 2051 AD still being alive despite the year being 4043 MEC or later), may indicate different notations used for persons. BA appears as well; 1 BA was later than 2051 AD.

Spaceflight is extant.

An era known as the Binary Age exists or existed, which was preceded by "a complete societal and scientific collapse" at the end of the Information Age.

Artificial intelligences may exist or be being developed, as evidenced by an anti-Turingtest movement.

A "home planet" (which was NOT Aquitilla) was conquered by something during the Binary Age. A colony ship escaped that home planet. The ship was destroyed in-transit by an experimental engine; the destruction appears to have seeded humanity across time on and near the planet Aquitilla.

People:

From at least 3985 MEC, the public has consisted of Aquitillans and non-Aquitillans.

Humans appear to be the dominant or only sapient species on Aquitilla.

Religion appears to exist in modern or near-modern times.

Names appear to follow a format similar to Western standards.

World:

Geography includes archipelagos, forests, hills, and deserts, perhaps indicating an Earthlike planet.

Plants and animals both present; insects extant.

Apple, pear, citrus, and cherry cultivated, as well as less familiar plants; agriculture widespread.

I also updated the OP with current phantoms and what we know about them. Since there are no B phantoms, feel free to dibs any article you like! Remember to include at least one existing phantom, and exactly one new phantom.

TURN B BEGINS!
