Ever since, contact to Urras has been strongly regulated by a treaty, the only point of tangency being Urrasti freighters landing and starting on the planet s only spaceport in Abbenay. Odonianism was developed by anarchist philosopher Laia Odo, who lived in the propertarian nation state of A Io on the planet of Urras. Part of her tale is told in the short story The Day Before the Revolution , part of the collection The Wind s Twelve Quarters . The story of Anarres and its settlement by Odonians is told in The Dispossessed .

Iotic is spoken in A Io, a superpower of the planet Urras, one of two settings of the story the other one being the sister planet Anarres, where Pravic is spoken . In contrast to Pravic, Iotic is a natural language , and as such probably exhibits many irregularities and complications, but the reader is not informed of them in the book.

In English law , the Assize of novel disseisin recent dispossession was an action to recover lands of which the plaintiff had been disseised, or dispossessed. The action became extremely popular due to its expediency. Rather than dealing with the issue of lawful possession, it simply asked whether a dispossession had taken place, in which case the property was restored to the plaintiff, and the question of true ownership was dealt with later. It was one of the so called petty assizes established by the Assize of Clarendon by Henry II of England Henry II in 1166 .
