Parakon is a pre-agricultural and nonindustrial garden world.

• Garden worlds are known for their near-ideal utopian environments conducive to most sophonts, plants, animals, and other forms of life.
• It is a pre-agricultural world with an environment suitable for large scale agricultural and livestock industries that have not yet been widely developed.
• It requires extensive imports of outside technology to maintain a modern, star-faring society. Having to import most manufactured and high tech goods drives the price up for these items at this world.
• Its economy and population are growing and living conditions are expected to slowly rise barring outside forces.
• It is a Non-Aligned world dominated by human sophonts located in the Nagor Subsector of Ruthless Veil Sector.
