Preservation Alliance

The Preservation Alliance is a group of freehold worlds settled by the survivors of failed colonies. They are independent of the Corporation Rim.

Culture
Preservation has two economies. One is a complicated barter system for planetary residents and one is currency-based for visitors and dealing with outsiders.

Preservation appears to value hand-made goods (as seen by the types of clothing available on Preservation Station) and also eat a primarily plant-based diet. In "Home: Habitat, Range, Niche, Territory", the food cabinet is stocked with only plant-based foods and drinks (nut-based milks, fruit and vegetables, etc.) and animal-based foods have yet to appear in the canon.
