Virgon was well-known for its forests ^{(TRS: "The Plan")} and considered to be one of the wealthier colonies ^{(TRS: "Dirty Hands")}. The capital of Virgon was Boskirk.

Virgon had a declining monarchy and a strong national parliament, at least 58 years before the Fall of the Colonies.

Virgon Brew was a beer produced on the planet and exported to other Colonies ^{(TRS: "Maelstrom")}.

Soon after the beginning of the Cylon attack, the Colonials launch a counter-attack over Virgon. The battle ends with the destruction of the flagship battlestar Atlantia and the resulting death of Fleet Admiral Nagala ^{(TRS: "Miniseries")}.

Marshall Bagot is the Virgon delegate to the first Quorum of Twelve. He nominates Tom Zarek for the vice-presidency ^{(TRS: "Colonial Day")}. In public ceremonies, the Virgon delegate wears a light blue sash.

Notes

• Serge's Twitter Account states that Virgon has a declining monarchy with a strong parliament.
• Virgon draws many parallels with present-day Earth's Britain; a declining monarchy, birthplace of Colonial language, coloniser of other planets (comparable to countries) and 'Virgon United' and 'Boskirk All Reds' are similar to Manchester United, a prominent English football team, also known as the Red Devils.
