Nantama was a wealthy resort world, controlled by House Elegin, renowned for the natural beauty of its fields. The Third Nantama Synod was held there. Nantama was famous for its exploding novas, the "shooting stars of Nantama." The planet was a popular galactic tourist attraction, even for those luxury-travelers wishing to opt for a holographic simulation experience—a sim-vacation, or sim-voyage. The (Human) people of the Juvex and Senex sectors took pride in the fact that on Nantama only non-Humans performed any labor.
