Kerelian society has a love for music and to a lesser degree arts and sciences. Everything from personal names to the names of cities reflect the musical heritage. Most Kerelians live in large cities with vast farmland in between. An advanced transportation system consists of Transporters and a complex network of "near the speed of light" magnetic rail cars. They are an advanced technological society with a rating of N+ on the [[T/E Rating System|Telepathic/Empathic Scale]]but choose to live as an agrarian society who still works the farmlands by hand and animal. Technological wonders that have seen their birth on Kerelia are used sparingly. Utilities such as water and power plants are automated requiring minimal maintenence and giving citizens the time to focus on their personal intersts. The Kerelian Academy of Sciences still produce galaxy class scientists who are sought through out the Federation. | Kerelian society has a love for music and to a lesser degree arts and sciences.

Kerelian parents exchange children from family to family for 2 months of the year so they can experience different forms of the arts. Children choose a Klata, or life path, when they are 16 and choose a mate at the age of 26 for females and 24 for males who become life long partners. Females give birth only once and will have three offspring. There are three major rituals that each Kerelain must go through or achieve. | ||
Kerelians are a non violent race but are fierce to defend themselves if attacked. No murder has been committed by a Kerelian in over 100 years and the incidence of violent crime is low but has seen a rise since the admittance to the Federation and the associated increase in visitors to the planet. The society welcomes all races and approves of inter species mating. There is little crime on the planet. | Kerelians are a non violent race but are fierce to defend themselves if attacked.
