{{Ithassa Region}} | {{Ithassa Region}} | ||
A great expanse encompassing a region between the borders of the Federation, [[Gorn]] Confederacy, [[Tzenkethi]] Hegmony and near the tip of [[Tholian]] space, largely still unknown despite the advances of what was originally the T-DI (Taskforce Discovery) Fleet of [[StarBase 118 Ops | Starbase 118]]. It also hosts both the [[Klingons]] as well as the [[Romulans]] in various capacities. | |||
With the advance of the original ships assigned to the region under Rear Admiral Hollis Calley, the region is one of the most politically active and sometimes controversial areas where a growing number of [[Starfleet]] and Federation facilities and ships are located. Pioneers of the Fleet include the decommissioned [[USS Kodiac]], the recently destroyed [[USS Independence]] (*see [[Battle for DS17]]), the [[USS Hammond]], the [[USS Triumphant]], and later the [[USS Wallace]] along with [[USS Darwin]]. | |||
The current Fleet encompasses the [[USS Ursa Major]], the [[USS Triumphant]], the recommissioned [[USS Ronin]], and soon to be another ship (due to the loss of the [[USS Independence]]), along with the [[Deep Space 17]] (DS17) starbase orbiting within the Eratis System. | |||
==Astrometry== | |||
The Ithassa Region is a vast expanse of space, covering a volume of 15000000^3 light years. This region is dictated by boundaries marking out a cuboid in space of 500x1000x30 light years. At Warp 9, the region takes approximately 1000 days to cross. | |||
==History== | ==History== | ||
It’s called the Chavesss Sector by the [[Gorn]], but the discovery is attributed to astrophysicist [[Sjori Ithassa]]. Officially, the first exploration vehicle by Starfleet has little by way of chain of events as to assignments, with the notable exception of the starbase [[Deep Space 17]], which was commissioned in 2312 (and decommissioned in 2339). | |||
The [[Tomed Incident]] with the [[Romulans]] resulted in the redeployment of [[Starfleet]] resources, which is believed to have attributed to the abandonment of the region until much later, toward the end of 2379 and beginning of 2380. | |||

===[[3A9]]=== | |||
A planet originally home to a [[Tzenkethi]] research station facility which was destroyed. | |||
===[[Aronis Sector]]=== | |||
A sector of magnetic shoals and high radiation, mapped by the [[USS Kodiac]]. | |||
===[[Eratis System]]=== | |||
Encompassing a vast asteroid environment and assorted gases orbiting around a neutron star. It is also the home of [[Deep Space 17]]. | |||
===[[Igloo Cluster (IC-93)]]=== | |||
A region that’s home to ninty-three (93) compact systems and a central area / home to many of the [[Grendellai]] (see [[The One Kingdom]]. | |||
===[[Furies Furnace]]=== | |||
A section of space which is highly volatile, carrying a substance through a major expanse of asteroid bodies which is corrosive to metal, and renders starship sensors useless. Known as a popular trade route for member races of the [[Free Trade Union]]. | |||
===[[T8A]]=== | |||
Not much is known, but it’s reputated to be a pleasure planet of sorts. | |||

Significant antipathy exists between the One Kingdom and the Gorn Confederacy. The Gorn have been known to supply weapons and supplies to resistance cells of Grendellai within the One Kingdom. The Gorn deliberately sabotaged recent peace talks hosted by then Rear Admiral Hollis, and later would send an invasion force into the Ithassa in an attempt to reclaim what was perceived as reclaiming a part of space belonging to the Confederacy which cultimated in the Battle for DS17 in the summer of 2383. | Significant antipathy exists between the One Kingdom and the Gorn Confederacy.
