	A Chatcaavan outpost world, Sharsenne was one of the sites of the [[Treaty of Za'ara \| Alliance/Chatcaavan peace treaty talks]]; in particular, the Chatcaavan site where the initial treaty was drafted in 159 BA. (The matching site on the Alliance side was [[Za'ara]]). Because of its history, this planet opened its doors to the Pelted and resulted in one of the rare mixed-population border worlds. It is owned by the Chatcaava, but only in a desultory way. This world had been settled seventy-eight years prior to the treaty but was not a popular destination for colonists and was never highly developed.

	<blockquote>"Its cities were part Chatcaavan and part Pelted, and the intermingling of cultures had produced households where people of disparate races found their viewpoints narrowing to a single vision. Unlike the monolithic microculture of the Chatcaavan capital and its palace, here there was dissent among the Chatcaava over the beliefs they deemed fitting. And those disaffected dragons maintained contact with family members still in the Empire proper." <ref name="ar-07" /></blockquote>		<blockquote>"Its cities were part Chatcaavan and part Pelted, and the intermingling of cultures had produced households where people of disparate races found their viewpoints narrowing to a single vision.

	The largest continent's first settled city was Jeintelle, with a handful of scattered other settlements in mountainous areas with good sky access.

			==Language==
			Chatcaavan is mostly used in the Chatcaavan-dominant communities, and Universal in the more mixed population areas. The world is known by the Chatcaava as Che Zuchek (sheh ZUH shek), but this is so hard for most Pelted to pronounce that they never use it. Amusingly, however, within fifty years of the Alliance arriving to Sharsenne, the Chatcaava who have issues with Throneworld mores have naturalized the Pelted name for the world, and call it/spell it 'Charzen.' (In Chatcaavan, the syllable is on the first syllable, and in Universal, on the first.)

			Many of the major cities have multiple names, depending on who's discussing them, like Jeintelle (raug che zuchek or Zantel).
