History

Begullan IV began as a scientific colony but the planet's natural beauty and temperate climate made the world perfect for colonization. Within the first fifty years of its existance Begullan IV became a popular port of call for passing starships. Instead of becoming a pleasure planet like Risa, the population of Begullan IV decided to cater toward conferences and corporations. By the time the planet reached its centennial, it had become one of the top five planets for business conferences, meetings and corporate retreats.
