'''Ma no Umi''' is a region of space to the galactic east of [[ma:Klach D'kel Brakt|Klach D'kel Brakt]], sandwiched between and extending into what once was Federation and Klingon space. It is notable for the extensive gravitational anomalies and [[ma:Plasma field|plasma fields]] that populate the area, severely affecting the range and effectiveness of sensors to the point where many ships are rendered near blind. The exact size of the region varies, dependant on the underlying subspace conditions. In some exceptional years the region has been known to extend as far as the old Romulan Neutral Zone. | In the [[The Dying of the Light (Gorkon)|Johnson Timeline]], '''Ma no Umi''' is a region of space to the galactic east of [[ma:Klach D'kel Brakt|Klach D'kel Brakt]], sandwiched between and extending into what once was Federation and Klingon space.

At one time a pirate haven, and a base of operations for the [[Orion Syndicate]], it has since the Borg takeover become a safe place for those known as the Survivors. After a violent fight with the Borg, the [[USS Gorkon]] was escorted there for safety, after being assisted by the Survivors. | At one time a pirate haven, and a base of operations for the [[Orion Syndicate]], it has since the Borg takeover become a safe place for those known as the Survivors.

The Kamarov Corridor is located in the heart of Ma no Umi, where plasma storms are rare and gravitational anomalies are mapped and stable, allowing relatively safe passage through the heart of the region. Sensors continue to function poorly in this area, and so travel through it is typically conducted through a series of timed manoeuvres, with often catastrophic results if performed incorrectly. | The Kamarov Corridor is located in the heart of Ma no Umi, where plasma storms are rare and gravitational anomalies are mapped and stable, allowing relatively safe passage through the heart of the region.
