Citizens
New Titanian Empire citizens and representatives from allied factions make up the population of Mona IV. Most of the citizens are Titanians, although members of other species also gained permanent residence within the megacities, including Humans.

Flora
Mona IV has a flora that grew across its rocky plains and forests. The Alter Bush was common in the forest, forming plastic substances that gave the appearance of a pedestal, growing fruit on its top. Hoverleaves were strange, gravity-defying Magic-based plants, which formed small floating clumps above the plains, and are still common among parks and nature reserves.

Fauna
Fauna native to Mona IV have been known to be magic-based, such as the light-bending crab-like Gemeons, and the aquatic Slyfins, which are able to manipulate water to some degree. During cyberforming, native fauna were either moved to reserves or taken off-world.

Mona IV has a planetary police force known as the Monan Legislative Authority, which has a heavy integration of robots, also containing some Uux-tech.

Public Works
On Mona IV, public works dedicated to ease of living and public safety are at the forefront of developments. Megacities have no permanent-residency lower levels, all dedicated to industrial works and Uux refinery. Education, alongside the academies of New Earth, make up the best educational institutions in the Milky Way and Government space. Public transportation systems run across the planet, and civilian starlines go across the galaxy. In a similar fashion to other megacities, almost all products manufactured on Mona IV are recyclable or biodegradable, although what cannot be degraded or recycled are incinerated.

Economics
Public transportation is free for permanent Monan residents, although temporary residents and tourists are charged low fees. Manufacturing and sales of technology is Mona IV's main source of income, along with housing trade centers and a few major banks. Uux-tech is traded and sold to other factions, and Mona IV also houses collaboration headquarters for multi-faction scientific, technological, and magical developments.

Pre-Titanian contact
Before the Trans-Galactic War, Mona IV was uninhabited, and its system was under no jurisdiction. During the war, Mona IV continued to be uninhabited, but started to build up high amounts of ambient magical energy, especially due to its Ultra Star sun.

Titanian contact
After an invasion from the Titan Regime was fought off, the New Titanian Empire chose to colonize the world. To control its wildlife and potential to serve as a bridge for malevolent beings into the realspace 3rd Dimension, the New Titanian Empire converted Mona IV into a terracity and refinery for Uux, also converting Mona into a Celestial Forge.
