Meranuge IV, also known as Da’al, is the fourth planet of the Meranuge system in the Borderlands. The planet is the homeworld of the Da’al, an independent warp-capable species.
Physical characteristics
The surface of the planet is described as green and blue. It has land masses of various sizes, as well as oceans and smaller seas.[1] The planet has rings. The rings have multiple colours.[1]
The atmosphere consists of 20.5 per cent of oxygen on planetary average and was breathable to most humanoids. There were also small quantities of carbon fumes and toxic elements. The atmosphere has a prismatic dispersion effect. At least near Vdam, the light was brighter than what humans had used to. The humidity and the temperature there were also higher than what was comfortable for humans.[2][3]
Ultraviolet levels are high. A medical examination for hiper-skin cell degeneration might be necessary for most humanoids after visiting the planet. No other forms of dangerous radiation was detected.[3] Atmospheric analysis also revealed small quantites of trilithium resin gases, a volatile and dangerous substance. The presens of the substance could have contributed to the UV levels on the planet.[4][5]
One building material used in the Government Complex in Vdam resembled glimmering granite.[6] According to the first contact team's notes, the planet does not have dilithium deposits or other noteworthy resources, although the scans were limited.[7]
Flora and Fauna
A species of falcons live on the planet. Some of the Da’al have them as pets and allow them to hunt their food.[8]
Trees that are suited for arid climate live at least in Vdam.[2]
Locations
Vdam
Vdam is the capital of the Da’al.[9] The city was likely located near a body of water.[3] The city's commercial centre consists of tall buildings.[10]
One of the landmarks of Vdam is the government complex, which includes the Prime Minister's official residence and offices. The complex consists of several tall buildings with small footprint. The architecture of the complex is plain with little decoration on its facade. The buildings of the complex and its gate are made of concrete or similar material. The complex is highly defencible, and is protected by shield generators. The Prime Minister's office has an ornate desk that has been used by Prime Ministers for 160 years.[2][10][11]
Near the government complex is the Heroes Park. The park is large enough for the starship USS Resolution to land on.[12] The park had trees that can live in arid climate.[2] Multiple lifeforms were detected in the park or in its vincinity.[3]
There are also military defence buildings in the city.[13]
Tecra
Tecra is a provincial capital city located on the southern hemisphere of the planet. The city was struck by a meteor in 2400, with inital estimations indicating that approximately 10,000 Da’al had died and the infrastructure of the city was estimated to been largely destroyed or damaged.[14]
The city has a government complex and Palace of Culture, which was converted to emergency aid centre after the meteor strike.[14]
Other
In 2397, Prime Minister Ypartin was accused of lack of action regarding the disagreement between the town of Deloth and the millers over the latest harvest.[9]
The different regions are governed by Regional Prefects and Assemblies.[15]
History
The Da’al developed warp drive in the late 23rd century. According to the second contact records from the early 2390s, the Da’al had established another colony within the system and two outpost to other systems.[16] Before 2397, the Federation had not performed a detailed scan of the Meranuge system or the planet, only relying on long-range scans and the minimal active scans during contacts.[17] The Federation starship USS Resolution received updated GIS data of the capital city Vdam from the Da’al Prime Minister.[12]
Klingons appeared to believe they have a solid historical claim to the system and the planet.[18] In 2397, a landing group of some 200 Klingons landed near the major cities of each of the planet's regions.[12] Crewmembers of the USS Resolution beamed in Vdam, and the ship itself soon landed in the Heroes Park.[2][11]
In 240002, the city of Tecra was devastated by a massive meteor strike, which killed thousands and damaged the city's infrastructure. The Interim Government asked the Starfleet for assistance.[14][19]
