Agrista is a small planet in the Veeshbőőn galaxy. It is populated by many different ethnicities such as human, ćabuns, dwarves, pironites, and farvians. It is smaller than Modius and larger than Earth. The planet has the perfect environment for plants.

The Robotic Confederation bought a large amount of land on Agrista and rented it to the Agristan people. Eventually, the Robotic Confederation’s empire had expanded to almost one third of the entire planet. The Agristans soon became irritated with Confederation control and insisted that it back off its real-estate plans. In order to lessen tension, the Robotic Congressional Assembly ordered the construction of Agristan University and donated it to the planet of Agrista to manage. Years later, Agristan University had fallen into incredible debt and ready to close. The Emperor of the Confederation took back the University. The Robotic Confederation quickly saved the University and it became the most prestigious college on Agrista.

It was at this time that Dr. Cassandra Randstein proposed the idea of an experimental greenhouse called the Biosphere. The Emperor was interested in the idea and allowed Randstein to begin her work. A year later, Agristan University began work on a gigantic greenhouse and facility.

After the closing of the Biosphere, Agristan University never recovered. Agrista continues to be a good planet for agriculture.
