Biology The Federation is composed of many different species, but mostly bi-pedal humanoid species that inhabit rocky oxygen-based planets. The major species of the Federation include Humans, Vulcans, Andorians, Trill, Betazoids, and Bolians. They average between 1.5 to 2.0 metres tall with masses from 50 to 100 kilograms. Each species brings unique physiological characteristics and strengths that characterize the flexibility and adaptability of the Federation. Society The Federation political system is democratic with elected representatives from each of the member worlds forming a ruling council. Every 5 years, a President is elected to represent Federation interests abroad. Member worlds maintain their own governments to administer the daily affairs of their cultures. Federation society is made up of a mixture of different cultures, but in general most citizens desire to better themselves through knowledge or hard work. Since the inception of the Federation, the majority of social problems that plagued many cultures have been alleviated, allowing the Federation to flourish. Highly organized trade and commerce supports a strong economy allowing the Federation to support a network of far flung colonies and outposts. Brief History The United Federation of Planets was formed in 2160 after the end of the Romulan War. Over the last 200 years, the Federation has grown to over 150 member worlds and has become a major influence in the Alpha quadrant. Although the Federation is dedicated to peace and exploration, they have not been without conflict. Since the inception of the Federation, conflicts have occurred with the Klingons, Romulans, Cardassians, Borg, and most recently the Dominion. The increasingly hostility against the Federation has forced them to adopt a more defensive position in recent history. Characteristics Advanced Traits
