'''Tricin''' (English: /ˈtrɪsin/ ''TRIS-in'' or /ˈtrɪkɪn/ ''TRIK-in''; [[Eevo]]: ''a Smøøh'' /ə smœyh/; [[Clofabosin]]: ''tricin'' /tɾikin/ 'world'; [[Tsjoen]]: ''Xjeof'' /ɬjʌf/) is a collaborative conworld setting originally created by [[User:IlL]] (and to a large extent, [[User:Praimhín]]).
'''Hmøøh''' ([[Skellan]]: ''a Hmøøh'' 'world'; [[Naeng]]: ''Sngeaf''; [[Swuntsim]]: ''Ξəp'' /tɬəp/) is an Earth-like planet orbiting a G-type main sequence star, called ''a hond'' in [[Skellan]], and ''fi nieth'' in [[Naeng]], in the Rytsofzyláð Galaxy.

Tricin is the second of 7 planets orbiting a G-type main sequence star, called ''a hond'' in [[Eevo]], ''grian'' in [[Clofabosin]], and ''pjeos'' in [[Tsjoen]].
Planet names in Eevo:
<!--Planet names in Phormatolidin: Sphytin, Chlorotricin, Alathoin, Phrycodin, Sterocythin, Tarofudin, Clypharin-->
*''Łyrxíd'' - terrestrial ([[Tseer]] ''Warsid'')
*''Hmøøh'' - terrestrial
**Satellite: ''Søøm''
*''Alvor'' - terrestrial (Tseer ''Almor'')
*''Firot'' - super-Earth (Tseer ''Firodh'')
*''Tservih'' - gas giant (Tseer ''Txermikh'')
*''Darwñð'' - gas giant (Tseer ''Darofwwđ'')
*''Çyñvar'' - ice giant (Tseer ''Khimar'')


Planet names in Eevo, Clofabosin and Tsjoen:
The largest planet is Tservih and the smallest is Alvor.
*''Sfiþ, spitin, Njav'' - terrestrial
*''Smøøh, tricin, Xjeof'' - terrestrial
**Satellite: ''Søøm, porfin, Tud''

1 Trician year = 381.3668618 Earth days = 357.0806527870906 Trician days = 1.04410737342 Earth years
1 Trician solar year = 357.08065278709064 Trician days. These are often grouped into 51 7-day weeks.


1 Trician day = 25.6323176 hours
1 Trician solar day = 24 Earth hours


357 days = 51 7-day weeks
A Trician day is divided into 5040 units, each of which is divided into 5040 smaller units.


Leap day every 12.3988275678 years
One Trician lunar month is 30.58122882574347 Trician days long; hence months in the lunar calendar usually have either 30 or 31 days. Twelve lunar months are about 366.97474590892164 days, which ''exceeds'' the solar year by 9.89409312183100 solar days. Hence Trician lunisolar calendars ''remove'' a month, approximately once in every 3 years, to keep the months aligned with the solar year.


months: 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29 30 30 30 29(30)
Atmosphere and atmospheric pressure: Earth-like


Leap year every 12 except when the year is divisible by 372. If the year is divisible by 130944=352*372 it's a leap year.

Star system

Planet names in Eevo:

  • Łyrxíd - terrestrial (Tseer Warsid)
  • Hmøøh - terrestrial
    • Satellite: Søøm
  • Alvor - terrestrial (Tseer Almor)
  • Firot - super-Earth (Tseer Firodh)
  • Tservih - gas giant (Tseer Txermikh)
  • Darwñð - gas giant (Tseer Darofwwđ)
  • Çyñvar - ice giant (Tseer Khimar)

The largest planet is Tservih and the smallest is Alvor.

Planetary characteristics

1 Trician solar year = 357.08065278709064 Trician days. These are often grouped into 51 7-day weeks.

1 Trician solar day = 24 Earth hours

A Trician day is divided into 5040 units, each of which is divided into 5040 smaller units.

One Trician lunar month is 30.58122882574347 Trician days long; hence months in the lunar calendar usually have either 30 or 31 days. Twelve lunar months are about 366.97474590892164 days, which exceeds the solar year by 9.89409312183100 solar days. Hence Trician lunisolar calendars remove a month, approximately once in every 3 years, to keep the months aligned with the solar year.

Atmosphere and atmospheric pressure: Earth-like

Continents

27% of Hmøøh's surface is land (i.e. not covered by water).

Continents (Areas are ballpark estimates):

  • Talma and Txapoalli: Spreads north to south, about 20% of the land
    • Talma (Skellan: Talma): Northern, temperate region
    • Txapoalli (Skellan: Eta): Southern, tropical region
  • Bjeheond (Skellan: Ogxóoñ): about 10% of the land, temperate
  • Avaka (Skellan: Avaga): about 30% of the land, climate varies widely
  • Cualuav (Skellan: Cualuav): 30%, climate varies widely
  • Arctica: 10%

The following describes the Talman calendar, which is now a global standard across Hmøøh.

Year 0 marks the founding of the Windermere Empire. Negative years are written with a minus sign.
