Igliak

Igliak was a planet in the Praxus Sector of Polaris, orbiting a radioactive sun and was the home of Meridian City, the capital of Free Polaris. Meridian City is probably the largest city of the galaxy as well, well comparable with Metropolis of the Solana galaxy and Megapolis of the Bogon galaxy.

During the Great War of Polaris, the warbot Zephyr was stationed in the Zenith Outpost in Meridian City. Later, during the perilous Phylax intrusion, he was joined by another warbot named Cronk, who later became his lifetime partner. The two were later sent on a mission to secure a Gelatonium Refinery on the planet to be able to transport fuel to the Meridian Armory. The refinery was infested by undead zombie dung dragons created by Igliak's radioactive sun.

When Emperor Percival Tachyon rose to power, the goverment and citizens of Meridian City refused to accept his control. Meridian City soon became the capital of Free Polaris, consisting of all planets and sectors not yet under Tachyon's control. Tachyon longed for years to seize control of the city, but even his large Drophyd armies were no match for the combined forces of the free planets in the Verdigris Sector.

However, when Tachyon used the Dimensionator to bring back his long-lost race of Cragmites, his first action was to lead an attack on Meridian City. Over a quarter of the city was destroyed by the Cragmites' dropships. Ratchet and Clank went there to help suppress the invasion, but it is never actually revealed whether the Cragmites managed to conquer the city.
