An ecumenopolis is a type of city that covers an entire planet, or in some cases a moon.
Valcarians were advanced enough to transform Valcaria into an ecumenopolis as early as 100,000 years ago. 96,000 years later, Mymiri became one, during the course of only a single century of prosperity.
There were many ecumenopolises in the galaxy, most notably:
- Illara Prime
- Lirassan (almost)
- Mymiri
- Sinosa
- Valcaria
