The Teke Ro system is composed of one star and the solitary planet Cona, homeworld to the race known as the Arcona. No large concentrations of asteroids exist, making travel through the system relatively simple. The central star of the system is also known as Teke Ro. Cona has a nitrogen and hydrogen-rich atmosphere that presents interesting problems to non-indigenous species. Teke Ro was discovered during the Old Republic era and considered a system of little importance. At the time, the system had not even developed a level of industry. Now inhabitants from the sector can be found all over the universe.

Because of the unimportance of the system, the Old Republic never delegated more than one or two ships to patrol through the area in search of pirates. It is believed that this lack of protection for the area has caused pirates and smugglers to take up residence within the relative safety of the region. More than one commerce ship has mysteriously disappeared while in transit through Teke Ro.
