The ninth planet of its system, home of the Ixians, whose manufacture of complex machinery presses against the proscriptions of the Butlerian Jihad.
Ix takes its name from being the ninth planet of its system, by way of somebody misreading the Roman numeral IX. Its economy rests on manufacturing complex machinery, work that sometimes runs past the moral and juridical proscriptions left behind by the Butlerian Jihad. Ix and Richese both escaped the worst of that Jihad, which is why Ix is classed supreme in machine culture. Its people are known collectively as the Ixians.
