The Zeons are the humanoid inhabitants of the planet Zeon, one of the two M-class planets in an unnamed star system.
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 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 John Gill and the takeover of the Nazi regime by 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 USS Enterprise, assigned to discover what had happened to John Gill, arrived just before the launch of the invasion against Zeon. The intervention of Kirk, Spock and 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. (TOS: "Patterns of Force")
The name "Zeon" is drawn from "Zion," the ancient Hebrew designation for Jerusalem, from which the political movement "Zionism" is derived. The character names were variants of Biblical figures: Abrom for Abraham, Isak for Isaac, and Davod for David.
ApocryphaStar Trek Maps lists the star system that contains both Zeon and Ekos as "M43 Alpha".
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==  
==History==  
The Aquan civilization was an example of forced evolution. Centuries before the 23rd century, the Aquans were air-breathers, but massive planet-wide earthquakes flooded the entire planet. They were forced to adapt to be able to breath underwater. Fortunately, their medical science technology was advanced enough to induce a necessary mutation, called a surgo-op, to ensure the survival of the entire species.


While primative in nature it was enough so that over the years they were able to fine tune the genetic modifications to the point where they are now fully adapted to underwater liveing.
Much of their history from before the transition has been lost. Partly due to the speed with which they were forced to adapt to life in the water but even more so due to the total destruction of many of their cities. That and the rapid manner in which most of the land mass's slipped below the surface of the water. It is estimated that over 90% of their population was lost during this time.


==Government==
==Government==
The Aquans were governed by a Ruling Tribunal of the Aquans, guided by the Aquan ordainments.


==Description==
==Description==
While humanoid in appearance they have evolved light green scally skin due to the genetic manipulation. This was to prevent skin damage due to prolonged submersion under water. Another genetic alteration was the addition of gills in their neck to enhance their ability to breathe underwater. They have medium to dark green hair.
 


==Physiology==
==Physiology==
Due to all the genetic manipulation their physiology is basically an ideal mix of both humanoid and aquatic fish.
 


==Psychology==
==Psychology==
They seem to be fairly well balanced as a species with the normal types of mental problems suffered by intelligent humanoids. However they do have a peculiar mental disease, phobia that affects some of them. A fear of the surface, above the water.
 


==Religion==
==Religion==
Their is some mystery regarding their beliefs prior to the extreme planet wide quakes that so radically altered their species. They were only able to save so much and with the loss of over 90% of the population it was only a select minority that was given the gene-therapy that was the first stage in transforming them into a new species able to survive and thrive underwater.


As for after the planet wide quakes, the survivors never really established any true form of religion.


==Mythology==
==Mythology==
Their are many myths regarding the life of their ancestors that lived above the waters. This is mainly due to the fact that almost no records survived. It is due to excavation and research that they are slowly trying to learn more about their past.


However they have also created another set of myths regards the survival of their people. These mostly center around the research team that created the technique by which their people were saved. That and the many problems that had to be overcome in order for them to survive.


==Society==
==Society==
They are a fairly peaceful and law obeying people. They live together in mutual harmony with few occurances of unrest. Most of these have been caused by outsiders. However they do tend to stay close to where they were born and in most cases, most of the population will seldom travel more than a few hundred miles away in their lifetime. 
 


==Culture==
==Culture==
Due to the underwater environment the only forms of art that they have are sculptures which can be found everywhere and a rather primative music that pulses through the water in harmonic waves.
 


==Customs==  
==Customs==  
They have developed a few
 


==Technology==
==Technology==
They have been able to evolve a completely unique technology system that can function efficently underwater. This includes thousands of differnt kinds of vessels, a couple different pollution free power generation systems and numerous high tech devices.


While they have been able to build ships that can travel in space, the majority of these are short range in nature. For any long range travel they have built an number of other devices for. The majority of these are like space suits but contain a water like environment instead of air.
 


==Economy==
==Economy==
They are completely self sufficient but have established a fairly respectable trade program with many other planets. Their main export is seafood, pearls and exotic coral. Their main imports have been waterproof cloth and technology that can function underwater.
 


==Military==
==Military==
They have no formal military, but they do have an excellent police force. They have also established a number of defensive satellite's in orbit to protect their world. This includes 1 spacestation that was constructed by offworlders at their request. This station is the main facility for contact between them and other species.

Fortunately, [[MA:Leonard McCoy|Doctor McCoy]] discovered that the venom of the sur-snake contained an antidote, and they were returned to normal.

The Zeons are the humanoid inhabitants of the planet Zeon, one of the two M-class planets in an unnamed star system.

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 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 John Gill and the takeover of the Nazi regime by 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 USS Enterprise, assigned to discover what had happened to John Gill, arrived just before the launch of the invasion against Zeon. The intervention of Kirk, Spock and 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. (TOS: "Patterns of Force")

The name "Zeon" is drawn from "Zion," the ancient Hebrew designation for Jerusalem, from which the political movement "Zionism" is derived. The character names were variants of Biblical figures: Abrom for Abraham, Isak for Isaac, and Davod for David.

The Zeon people are peace-loving pacifists who, compared to their temperamental, Ekosian neighbors in the M43 Alpha system, excel in technological advancements and diplomacy.

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.
