The [[ma:Zeon|Zeon]] people are peace-loving pacifists who, compared to their temperamental, [[ma:Ekosian|Ekosian]] neighbors in the M43 Alpha system, excel in technological advancements and diplomacy. Physically, the Zeon are almost indistinguishable from Nordic and European [[ma:Terran|Terrans]], and their intelligence has benefited in their achieved excellence in sciences and the arts. As natural diplomats and a generous people, Zeon are very open to sharing their discoveries with their neighbors. However, in the late 2260's, a large delegation from [[ma:Zeon (planet)|Zeon]] arrived on [[ma:Ekos|Ekos]] to promote peace and to share their technological advancements with the Ekosians. But upon their arrival they and their planet were subsequently targeted for persecution and genocide by a mad society that had recently-embraced a fascist regime rigidly based on [[ma:National Socialist Party|Nazism]] from early history on [[ma:Earth|Sol III]]. Thinking the Zeon people as a plague, the Ekos Nazi-inspired regime actively sought out the Zeon people for slavery, torture and genocide programs. Fortunately, with [[ma:UFP|Federation]] intervention, the Zeon resistance prevailed, and years later successfully stopped tide of bloodshed on both worlds. In the end, many Zeon were murdered, many more were displaced out of the M43 system, and those few who survived rebuilt their planet into a tolerant, albeit overly-cautious society, always watchful over their violent neighbor Ekos.

==History==
By the mid-23rd century, Zeon had been living in peace for many generations, and had developed the beginnings of interplanetary spaceflight. Noticing the state of anarchy among the warlike, pre-spaceflight [[Ekosian|Ekosians]], many Zeons came to Ekos in an effort to help their neighbors learn peaceful ways. Sometime after 2218, a Zeon colony was established on Ekos.
 
After the cultural contamination of [[MA:John Gill|John Gill]] and the takeover of the Nazi regime by [[MA:Melakon|Melakon]], Zeons became a hunted people on Ekos. Using the Nazi model, Melakon used the presence of Zeons in much the same way as Adolf Hitler used the Jews of Germany and Europe, scape-goats to be blamed for Ekos' problems and eventually a threat to be eliminated. With the technology elicited from Gill, Melakon rapidly upgraded Ekosian weapons. By 2268, the "Final Decision", an genocidal invasion on the planet Zeon, was preparing for deployment.
 
The [[MA:USS Enterprise (NCC-1701)|USS Enterprise]], assigned to discover what had happened to John Gill, arrived just before the launch of the invasion against Zeon. The intervention of [[MA:JAmes T. Kirk|Kirk]], [[MA:Spock|Spock]] and [[MA:Leonard McCoy|McCoy]] roused Gill in time to call-off the attack, and Gill recanted his beliefs to Kirk as he died, insisting that the Prime Directive was "the only way".
 
The regime created by Gill and Melakon proved to be weaker than their German model. The Nazi government and the "Final Decision" was not embraced by all of Ekos. An underground alliance of Zeons and Ekosians had formed, including high-level Nazi party members who wanted no part in the genocide. Kirk's actions allowed the Zeon Isak to kill Deputy Führer Melakon. Afterwards, there appeared to be no impediment to the worlds working together. Spock observed that the union of the two cultures would make a fine addition to the Federation.
 
However while both planets have continued to develop peacefully many of the Zeons have returned to their own world. While they are still on peaceful terms with the Ekosians and most of the people who lived through the insanity have passed on their is still a faint undercurrent of belief that has prevented them from becoming allies.
 
==Government==
They have a council of elders that represents all 8 regions on the planet. The total numer of individuals on this council is in a constant state of fluxuation. The only requirements for membership on this council is that the individual must be 50 years of age or more and have at least 2 different degrees in 2 different fields of study.

With the technology elicited from Gill, Melakon rapidly upgraded Ekosian weapons. By 2268, the "Final Decision", an genocidal invasion on the planet Zeon, was preparing for deployment.
