Some scholars assert that the necessity to make the most of every single accessible resource in order to survive and progress has contributed to Catullan engineering prowess. Other scholars dispute this, pointing out that on many worlds cultures which develop in warm, welcoming tropical climates have the least pressure to evolve. | Some scholars assert that the necessity to make the most of every single accessible resource in order to survive and progress has contributed to Catullan engineering prowess.

Humanoids, Catullans are noted starship engineers and many successful design yards are based out of the Catullan system. The well-known Yoyodyne Propulsion Systems was co-founded by Terrans and Catullans and is headquartered on Catulla. Their other sciences and society are slightly less advanced, but well up to Federation standards.

History
Standard for many M-class worlds:
- tribes lead to small city-states,
- city states combined into larger economic and political units (kingdoms, empires, republics) by aggression or treaty,
- larger units fractured again as conditions changed (natural disasters making powerful states into weak ones, failures in inherited leadership, technological discoveries providing temporary economic advantages, etc.)
