===History===
*no noticeable season variation due to there being no axial tilt
Lord Devron Beruna founded the colony in ???. In the beginning it was primarily just a primitive mining colony but as it developed and expanded it grew. Now it is a major exporter of refined metals, fruit and other valued commodities.
*daytime temperatures are on average between 43C and 59C, while the night time temperatures can drop to an alarming -12C to 17C
*no surface water (all water is obtained through wells or drilling)
*a thin atmosphere with a pressure of about 0.76 earth normal, (will need aid of respirator at any elevation above 500 feet) with nitrogen 72%, oxygen 23% and argon 3%
*with a year of 332 days, each day 37.6 hours long
*primary terrain features are sand and rock
 
===Resources===
Devron has an over abundance of industrial metals, (Both light and heavy) which was the original reason for the [[Caraadian]]s to establish a colony on this planet. As for other types of resources there are some crystals (Dilithium included but not a major resource) and gems with the quality ranging from sub-standard to excellent, no rare metals, and there does not seem to be any radioactives.  


In ??? one of the minor houses aligned with House Beruan of the Caraadian Empire had defected, transferring their loyalty and control of the colony and the space port to the Valcarians. Due to the placement of their current military forces the government thought that calling in a neutral 3rd party might buy them the time needed to reclaim the system. As a result the crew of the USS Atlantis, a Federation starship was allowed to enter the system and involve themselves in the power struggle.


===Government===
This planet and the system are part of the Caraadian Empire, controlled and governed by House Beruna.


===History===
In ??? one of the minor houses aligned with House Beruna defected to the Valcarian Imperial Republic turning over control of the colony and the space port to them.

Several noble and Merchant houses call the planet home along with a large settlement of commoners who dwell around the planet's busy space port. A space tether connects the ground spaceport to a busy orbital starport for shipping vessels unable to land.


===Federation Intelligence Files===
On ??? the crew of the USS Atlantis visited the planet to act as diplomatic mediators due to the fact that the Valcarian Imperial Republic had taken control of both the colony and the space port. One of the minor houses aligned with House Beruan of the Caraadian Empire had defected, transferring their loyalty and control of the colony and the space port to the Valcarians.
