History
The Bila system is a relatively older system, the once yellow-white star now turning orange as it ages. While it has several planets, it is not a particularly resource rich system. With the nearby Saurian Empire, this species has not done much warp exploration, and lays in a very neutral region of space. The system itself holds no strategic value, and aside from a Federation survey in 2369, has very low priorities - even more so with the pull out of the USS Discovery-C until the USS Doyle-A was reassigned to the sector.
In 2392, the Bila system was again of importance when it experienced a massive rash of disasters. While it seemed that events would force the system to become uninhabitable, the crew of the USS Doyle-A were able to detect the plot (to artificially create many different volcanic and tectonic events, to force an evacuation) and helped stop it.
Government
The Bilarian people do not have a central government. Instead they have 3 major regions each with its own government. Each of these control roughly 1/3 of the planets surface and population.
Jalno Council
The Jalno Council controls most of the islands that are scattered over the two large oceans on this world. Each Island selects its own leader and the method and means by which this is done can vary greatly from island to island. So do the size and populations of these islands, from some so small their populations are less than a 1,000 people to some of the bigger islands with close to half a million people.
Movirin Monarchy
The Movirin Monarchy rules one of the two major continents on the planet. Its current head is the Empress Achmedina Movirin who rules with an iron fist. Her secret police and military forces ensure that their is no threats to her rule or that of her family. Even now that she has reached a very old age no one, not even members of her own family would dare cross her.
Sinla Republic
The Sinla Republic controls the other major continent on the planet. This land mass is divided into areas controlled by elected governors, each responsible for the care and fair governing of their region on behalf of the people and for the people. Each of these governors work together and report to a central elected overseer who has no authority over the individual regions but is responsible for ensuring that each region works together for the good of all.
Description
They are a semi-aquatic species of gastropods that require a viscous organic fluid environment for movement and nourishment. On average, a fully grown adult weights between 65 and 115 lbs. They are nondescript physically and they have a pale greenish tinge to their rather thick leathery skin.
Physiology
They live in pools of a thick viscous organic liquid that are maintained at a temperature of 150° C and they dislike bright light.
Psychology
They are noted for their very strict observance of protocol.
Religion
Due to their reclusive and insular nature any knowledge about this aspect of their society is unknown at this time.
Mythology
Due to their reclusive and insular nature any knowledge about this aspect of their society is unknown at this time.
Society
The Legarans are an insular society, a reclusive species of gastropods that rarely ever leave their homeworld, one with a strict and often demanding need for precise adherence to certain protocols.
Significant work is required to prepare for their arrival, and to make them comfortable in an environment that is alien to them. Special vats are constructed for them, and are placed in rooms that have been decorated with a great deal of care. These rooms must have no furniture, no decorations and must have subdued lighting.
Culture
Legaran bodies turn orange after death. For this reason, display of the color orange is considered a grave offense. The use of furnishings and decorations are also considered taboo.
Customs
Due to their reclusive and insular nature any knowledge about this aspect of their society is unknown at this time.
Technology
Even though they never developed a space program or any offensive or defensive technologies they have been able to create and perfect various other technologies. As a result their planetary infrastructure is an engineering marvel, including an unheard of interconnected planet wide system designed to maintain, control and adjust the content, temperature and nourishment levels amid
Economy
They are completely self-sufficient and participate in no trade of any kind. However as part of the treaty that was negotiated with the Federation a major mining operation for raw uridium has been established on the planet.
Military
They have little to no military capability. However in return for allowing the Federation to mine uridium, the Federation has accepted full responsibility for the defense and protection of their world. As a result over 50 defensive satellites have been placed in orbit around their world and are maintained and monitored from a Federation facility on the largest moon in orbit of their world.
Federation Intelligence Files
Located in proximity to that area of space claimed by the Cardassian Union, Legara IV is the homeworld of the Legaran civilization. Legara IV is rich in uridium, a resource coveted by the Cardassians.
Chon (Legaran)
Prelate Chon was a Legaran diplomat who lived in the early 24th century. Chon led the Legaran party that attended the talks between the Federation and the Cardassian Union aboard Vulcan Space Central in the year 2327.
Legaran Conference
After 93 years of preliminaries by Vulcan Ambassador Sarek, the Legarans made their first official contact with the Federation in 2366. This was during the Legaran Conference which was held aboard the USS Enterprise-D. They finally signed a treaty with the Federation in 2368 after nearly a century of negotiations.
