Millennia is a far-off planet that is the setting for The ClueFinders Reading Adventures Ages 9-12: Mystery of the Missing Amulet.
Geography and Demography[]
From a distance, Millennia appears to be mostly rocky with purple swirling clouds obscuring much of the planet. There are three suns that can be seen from Millennia, and the planet has two moons. There are many mountainous regions, volcanoes, caverns, and crystals on the planet's surface. During the ClueFinders' quest, they visit three subareas inside of Millennia: the Crystal Caverns, the Mystic Mountains, and Mount Valdrok.
Millennia is largely inhabited by two species, the Doldreks and the Sorrens, although there are other types of inhabitants as well, many of which are sentient machines and statues. The written passages in some of the activities also mention a variety of other creatures and plants found on the planet, at least in the past.
In many ways, Millennia share some similarities to Earth, both geographically and culturally. The atmosphere and gravity appears to be similar, as the ClueFinders are able to breathe and move normally while on Millennia. They also appear to use Latin based alphabet, as Joni and Owen find signs and a plaque written in English throughout the planet.

Trivia[]
- A "millennium" is a period of a thousand years, which "millennia" is a plural of. The term "millennia" is sometimes used to describe the hypothesized time that it would take to travel between planets. This is likely what the planet's name is derived from.
