By far however, the most numerous of the Federation races is one of the founding members, the Humans of Sol. The people of the Federation live in a society based on the values of liberty and equality. Their strength lies in extremely effective research, which grants them fast access to new technologies. Their high-quality products come at the expense of high resource costs, however. Because of their moral convictions, they quickly show weaknesses in the field of espionage, but they make up for this with impressive, well-rounded starships, which function as well individually as in groups. Federation starships are equally likely to be seen conducting trade, exploration, humanitarian, and diplomatic missions, as they are to be seen conducting military patrols and combat manoeuvres.</DiplomacyReport> <HomeSystemName>Sol</HomeSystemName> <Color>Blue</Color> <HomeQuadrant>Alpha</HomeQuadrant> <CivilizationType>Empire</CivilizationType> <TechCurve>TechCurve6</TechCurve> </Civilization> <Civilization Key="ROMULANS"> <Race>ROMULANS</Race> <ShortName>Romulans</ShortName> <LongName>Romulan Star Empire</LongName> <DiplomacyReport>To outsiders, the Romulans are an enigmatic race. To the Romulans, however, other races have hardly any mystery left, for their talented intelligence agency, the Tal Shiar, has solved each of those mysteries. Romulan interests are protected by a veil of secrecy and covertness, just as their ships are hidden from prying eyes by powerful cloaking technologies. Their ships move undetected in groups until they are close to their unsuspecting victim, before decloaking and destroying their target in the ambush. Reports on Romulan society show it functions on exceptional research achievements. The basic supply of energy and food for the populace is sufficient to meet day-to-day needs, and is rigorously regulated to be resource-saving, as are their fleet maintenance costs; Romulan fleets expect to decimate the enemy before they have any chance at mounting a defence. There is therefore little need to equip their vessels with expensive armour plating. This should not be seen as a weakness however; Romulan ships are known equally for their manoeuverability and heavy weapons, and for their ability to disappear at will.</DiplomacyReport> <HomeSystemName>Romulus</HomeSystemName> <Color>Green</Color> <HomeQuadrant>Beta</HomeQuadrant> <CivilizationType>Empire</CivilizationType> <TechCurve>TechCurve6</TechCurve> </Civilization> <Civilization Key="KLINGONS"> <Race>KLINGONS</Race> <ShortName>Klingons</ShortName> <LongName>Klingon Empire</LongName> <DiplomacyReport>The Klingons are some of the most feared warriors in the galaxy. Their quest for glory and honour in battle makes them masters in the field of combat; be it in ground or space-based combat, their weapons arm quickly and strike hard. Some of their warships possess cloaking devices, with which the Klingons strike from the shadows at their prey. Their vigorous industrial forges process countless masses of raw materials, keeping their resource-hungry war machine running, whilst gigantic hunting parties guarantee the population's food supply. However, all things that do not directly serve battle are of lower importance to them and thus are less effective. The Klingons consider espionage a cowardly and dishonourable act, but are willing to defend themselves through internal security as necessary.</DiplomacyReport> <HomeSystemName>Qo'noS</HomeSystemName> <Color>Crimson</Color> <HomeQuadrant>Beta</HomeQuadrant> <CivilizationType>Empire</CivilizationType> <TechCurve>TechCurve6</TechCurve> </Civilization> <Civilization Key="CARDASSIANS"> <Race>CARDASSIANS</Race> <ShortName>Cardassians</ShortName> <LongName>Cardassian Union</LongName> <DiplomacyReport>The Cardassians use any means necessary to ensure the absolute loyalty of their subjects. A national indoctrination, mixed with effective control methods, promotes an unconditional belief in the Cardassian systems and work ethics, which results in exceptional industrial and mining capacity. These state-promoted plants clearly work far more effectively than their food and energy installations however, and their research advances at a slow rate. Their intelligence services, the Obsidian Order, are also very efficient, and are considered to be as dangerous as their military, both in the acts of espionage and sabotage. Cardassian ships continue the principle of community-controlled actions in space. Individually not very efficient, they are developed to attack in tight formations.</DiplomacyReport> <HomeSystemName>Cardassia</HomeSystemName> <Color>DarkGoldenrod</Color> <HomeQuadrant>Alpha</HomeQuadrant> <CivilizationType>Empire</CivilizationType> <TechCurve>TechCurve6</TechCurve> </Civilization> <Civilization Key="DOMINION"> <Race>JEMHADAR</Race> <ShortName>Dominion</ShortName> <LongName>Dominion</LongName> <DiplomacyReport>The Founders, also known as "Changelings" to outsiders, see themselves as the legitimate power that will bring the chaotic universe to order and control it with themselves at the top of their new hierarchical system. For this purpose, the Founders routinely genetically re-engineer races to perform particular roles within their Dominion. These races include the mighty Jem'Hadar, perfect soldiers who are controlled by psychotropically addictive drugs that only the Founders know how to make; and the Vorta, the "face and voice" of the Founders, their diplomats, and the race that permits the Jem'Hadar access to Ketracel-White supplies in exchange for their loyalty. The Dominion regularly use their superior genetic manipulation techniques to "improve" all the races under their control, and this policy has allowed them to make astonishing achievements in many areas, including construction, mining, and energy production. The many races under the Dominion now worship the Founders as near-mythical gods, although the Founders themselves rarely leave the homeworld. The shapeshifting abilities of the Founders are very useful in gathering intelligence and performing acts of sabotage, whilst the excellent Jem'Hadar ships and troops carry their will to the far reaches of the galaxy.</DiplomacyReport> <HomeSystemName>Omarion</HomeSystemName> <Color>DarkMagenta</Color> <HomeQuadrant>Gamma</HomeQuadrant> <CivilizationType>Empire</CivilizationType> <TechCurve>TechCurve6</TechCurve> </Civilization> <Civilization Key="ACAMARIANS"> <Race>ACAMARIANS</Race> <ShortName>Acamarians</ShortName> <LongName>Acamarians</LongName> <DiplomacyReport>The Acamarians wish to preserve their social structure.
