Cendo Prae is located so far from Earth that maps which show the bulk of the Federation's member worlds cannot display it. Its relative isolation has protected it to a significant extent from both Borg and Dominion incursions in recent centuries. There are rumours that the Federation may have begun to secrete caches of critical knowledge and assets in the vicinity of Cendo Prae, as seeds for recovery in the event of another Federation-scale threat, but no such activity has been confirmed by any reputable public source.<br>
Cendo Prae is so far from Earth that a viewer looking at a map of the Federation cannot see Cendo Prae without zooming out until the rest of the Federation becomes a blur. The planet's relative isolation has protected it to a significant extent from both Borg and Dominion incursions in recent centuries; the Borg seemed to pay it no attention at all, and public revelations about Dominion activity were limited to some minor incidents of espionage and sabotage at Yoyodyne, all of which involved agents of the Founders, rather than the Founders themselves. There are rumours that the Federation may have begun to secrete caches of critical knowledge and assets in the vicinity of Cendo Prae, as seeds for recovery in the event of another Federation-scale threat, but nothing has been confirmed by any reputable public source.<br>

Even after centuries of careful coastline reclamation and near-continuous seawall construction, the amount of land above sea level on Cendo Prae is significantly below M-class norms. Nearly all land that isn't entirely vertical (and some that is) has been adapted for Catullan use. Above the water, virtually no wilderness or other apex predators native to the planet still exist. Seen from orbit, Cendo Prae seems entirely domesticated, terraced and bermed and groomed and fenced and walled everywhere but on sheer cliffsides and the steepest, narrowest mountain valleys. <br>
