Aroun is an agricultural, nonindustrial world still lacking adequate means to expand its economy.

• As an agricultural world, this world is a near-ideal environment for producing quality foodstuffs of plant, animal, and other forms. Quality foodstuffs are a major export commodity for this world.
• 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.
• This is a "low technology" world with technology competencies well below standard for Charted Space.
• It is a member of the Ukhanzi Coordinate, a member state of the Julian Protectorate, located in the Maidza Subsector of Mendan Sector and is a part of the Vargr Extents.

• This world was colonized by and is controlled from Amiggus (world).
