Sufren is a major industrial hub, a garden-world, and considered by many to be the jewel of the sector. It is also home to a large population (over two million) of Orcinus orca sapiens, intelligent orcas produced by an off shoot of the same Terran program that resulted in the more well-known intelligent dolphins. These huge creatures were relocated to Sufren after funding was terminated for the program on Terra. They share Sufren's seas with a population of Tursiops truncatus galactus.

Sufren’s extensive government naval yard continues to produce the planet’s own military starships; only commercial hulls are produced offworld. That may not be the case much longer; local businesses are working to upgrade the commercial starport to an A class facility.

Sufren features a fairly well-preserved Ancients site. However, since the Umorphutwyo (Diaspora 1816) incidents of the mid-1120s, access to the site has become difficult; Visitors must submit to background checks and personal interviews. The reason for these added precautions is not known, but rumors suggest that the Intelligence Division of Sufren's Planetary Navy has begun classified research at the site.
