Thallon was a planet located in sector 221-G, in the space of the galaxy's Beta Quadrant, orbiting the Thallon system. Thallon was a center of culture and commerce as the homeworld of the Thallonian civilization and the capital planet of the Thallonian Empire.

History and specifics

In the year 2373 it was discovered that Thallon's great wealth of materials and geothermal energy were the result of the world being a sort of "egg" or "nest", and that a Great Bird of the Galaxy had been gestating or hibernating within the planet. There had been a steady decline in the habitability of the world for over a decade prior, leading to a great deal of emigration and eventually, the collapse of the Thallonians' empire. The planet was destroyed as the Bird emerged, killing all who had remained. The surviving Thallonians founded a new homeworld on New Thallon.
