Kreshnor is a planet in Milky Way galaxy which has a Stargate. Kreshnor is populated by Tau'ri slaves who broke free from Ba'al.
History[]
Early Goa'uld rule[]
The planet formerly belonged to the Goa'uld System Lord Ba'al, who abandoned Kreshnor when its resources were exhausted. The stargate has not been active since Ba'al abandoned the planet. The capital Denkh is the central square of all society on the planet. Kreshnor is a barren and inhospitable world. There are seven smaller cities on the planet that are close to the few remaining water sources between the desolate landscape that stretches for miles. Kreshnor is controlled by the King Mekish IV which keeps control of a unique entity "Horizon Line". The king had full authority over the planet.
Life on Kreshnor is hard and agriculture and other basic activities dominate society. Indigenous people still worship Ba'al by their religion that has grown rapidly over the centuries. The festivities were getting limited by birth, harvest festivals and other handfuls holy days. No one questioned the king's rule or power to lead civilization. Before Horizon Line was revealed, a civil war was ensuring on the planet that could've rendered the population extinct. (RPG: "Friends and Foes: Stargate Season Two")
