'''Andoria''' is a frigid [[MA:Class M|M]]-Class moon that orbits the fifth planet (a ringed [[MA:Gas giant|gas giant]]) in the Andorian system. Approximately 85% of the moon's surface is covered in water, and the moon is characterized by two large ice caps at its poles. These are much bigger than those found on [[MA:Earth|Earth]].

Andoria is one of the five founding worlds of the [[MA:United Federation of Planets|United Federation of Planets]]. It is in close proximity to [[Vulcan]], with whose people the [[Andorian|Andorians]] endured great conflict for many years.

==History==
[[Andorian]] history is characterised by periods of extreme turbulence, which reflects the people's tendencies towards violence. Records from before 1692 (Earth-Gregorian) may be of limited value, as nearly all of Andoria's historical documents were destroyed during periods of global civil war.

|-
|Pre-1284 || Andoria is torn by planetary civil war. Clans form alliances, attack other clans, then break allegiance and fight each other. Chaos ensues.
|-
|1284 || A clan lord, [[MA:Krotus|Krotus]], succeeds in conquering Andoria by defeating the most powerful opposing clans before turning them against the weaker remnants. This act unites Andoria and puts an end to the hundreds of years of bitter fighting. [[MA:Krotus|Krotus]] ushers in an industrial age. Andoria begins to prosper.
|-
|1332 || [[MA:Krotus|Krotus]] is assassinated by his daughter. She seizes control of his clan, but is by no means as successful at maintaining control of the planet. While technological advances continue to be made, the planet's political situation begins to rapidly destabilise.
|-
|1597 || Disputes over the Tharan Mountains trade route ignite hostilities between warlords, resulting in 100 years of bitter warfare that destroys nearly everything the [[Andorian|Andorians]] had built. This came to be known as the ''Time of Lament''.
|-
|1692 || Lor’Vela, a 14 year-old girl, slays her mother and takes control of her ''keth'' in response to a fever-induced dream. She calls together the leaders of the clans to the Council of Tarsk, and persuades them to forego attacks on each other in an attempt to restore Andor to its former glory. The government she set up during this time remains in effect even to this day.
|-
|c.1910 || The [[Vulcan|Vulcans]] make first contact with the [[Andorian|Andorians]], whom they believe show promise despite their tendency towards strong emotion. The [[Andorian|Andorians]] quickly reject their offers of aid and collaboration due to what they perceived as overly meddlesome behaviour.
|-
|c.1950 || The [[Andorian|Andorians]] and [[Vulcan|Vulcans]] begin a border dispute that will last for the next 200 years. The [[Vulcan|Vulcans]] are unsettled by neighbours that they consider to be barbaric and casually violent. The [[Andorian|Andorians]] believe that the an invasion may be imminent, and rely on their ability to stage a massive counterattack as a deterrant.
|-
|c.2050|| [[Andorian|Andorians]] terraform [[MA:Weytahn|Weytahn]], a class-[[MA:Class D|D]] [[MA:Planetoid|planetoid]], that lies in a strategic location close to the [[Vulcan]] homeworld. When the [[Vulcan]] demand to inspect the colony to ensure there are no military installations on the surface is denied, the [[Vulcan|Vulcans]] decide to forcibly evacuate the planet. The dispute rages on for many years.
|-
|2097 || A treaty is signed in which the [[Vulcan|Vulcans]] claim [[MA:Weytahn|Weytahn]], and rename it Paan Mokar. A surveillance sattelite is placed in orbit to monitor the planet's surface.
|-
|2104 || [[Andorian|Andorians]] discover a hidden settlement of [[Aenar]] located below the Issan ice cap, also referred to as the [[MA:Northern Wastes|Northern Wastes]]. Until this time, the existence of the telepathic [[Aenar]], a subspecies of [[Andorian|Andorians]] was thought to have been a myth.
|-
|2118 || [[Andorian|Andorians]] Develop [[MA:Warp drive|warp]] travel.

Many [[Andorian]] cities are subterranean, using [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_power geothermal energy] to warm them in order to make habitation more comfortable.

==Politics==
All [[Andorian|Andorians]] are members of clans, or ''keth'', which specialise in different professional skills. These ''keth'' all have different views, which need to be represented in some way in the global government. As such, the Kethni council, made up of a number of members from different ''keth'' is the global government of Andoria, and it comprises around 300 members. Legislation, as well as the election of a Chancellor, is decided democratically. The Council is directly responsible for the Andorian Defence Force, which does not fall under the jurisdiction of [[MA:Starfleet Command|Starfleet Command]].

Andoria.jpg

Andoria is a frigid P-Class moon that orbits the fifth planet (a ringed gas giant) in the Andorian system. Approximately 85% of the moon's surface is covered in water, and the moon is characterized by two large ice caps at its poles. These are much bigger than those found on Earth.

Andoria is one of the five founding worlds of the United Federation of Planets. It is in close proximity to Vulcan, with whose people the Andorians endured great conflict for many years. Andoria forms the capital of the Andorian Empire, and is home to the Andorians and their offshoot species, the Aenar. Andoria is relatively close to the Sol system.

Andoria is also referred to as Andor, both by Andorians and off-worlders.

Geography

Jonathan Archer and Shran travel the Aenar tunnels in search of the Aenar city.

Many Andorian cities are subterranean, using geothermal energy to warm them in order to make habitation more comfortable. They connected by thousands of kilometers of ice tunnels. The surface is referred to as bracingly cold, even by the Andorians themselves, as the temperature only ever rises above zero degrees centigrade during rare heatwaves. Scientists theorise that it was in volcanic rifts, and in underground pockets near the planet's core that temperatures were high enough to sustain the origins of life.

There are 4 continents on Andoria, Issa (Northern Ice-Cap), Ka’thela, Tlanek (Southern Ice-Cap) and Voral. Ka’thela and Voral are connected by the Tharan Mountains.

Lor'Tan is the largest city on Andoria, although its administrative capital is Laibok. Borders between countries do not exist, instead various areas are controlled by different keth, similar to a tribal territorial system.
