=== Rotantic Heritage Shelter Program ===
The Rotantic Heritage Shelter Program encompasses two separate facilities located in the northern Älemsi steppes - The Global Biological Archive and the Global Cultural Archive respectively. These two centers are sited in the vast Älemsi interior due to the island's geological and climatological predictability, as well as its remoteness from potential conflict zones.
 
==== Global Biological Archive ====
The Global Biological Archive is a secure facility intended to house the world's crop diversity in order to protect the world's food supply in the event that natural disaster or mismanagement otherwise leads to the loss of particular species. This concept dates back to the height of the Novaran Cold War, when it was feared that a general nuclear exchange could result in severe short- and medium-turn environmental changes which, alongside the destruction of conventional genebanks, would drive some crop species to extinction.
 
The Archive provides long-term storage for duplicates of seeds developed and grown around the world at no cost to the depositors, and its ultimate mission is to serve as a final backup source for agricultural biodiversity. The project is jointly funded and operated by the governments of CAC member nations and is built on landed donated by the Burim Autonomy of Älemsi Negdel.
