   Parity and Geth clients have different acceptable genesis files, 
   
   Parity:
   https://github.com/5chdn/crossclient-chainspec/blob/master/parity.json
   
   Geth:
   https://github.com/5chdn/crossclient-chainspec/blob/master/geth.json
   
   yes, the spec. isn't even agreed to as a standard in ethereum foundation, which `chain_id` and `network_id` having different meanings, but let's just ignore that for this argument. 
   
   I think a good place to start would be with something like this: https://github.com/ethereum-lists/chains where a network's metadata is at least indexed and agreed upon. Defining those terms first then worrying about specific parts such as `alloc` for example would be easier, as the amount of configuration is rather large when you start getting into IBFT2, etc. 
   
   Another good reference point would be the Parity config generator: https://paritytech.github.io/parity-config-generator/#config=e30=
