Vast and untamed, the Avalon Sector has been frontier territory since the 22nd century. Dominated by the better part of the Briar Patch and historically regarded as insignificant, Starfleet only took notice of the Avalon Sector when the planet Ba'ku was discovered in 2375. After the incident with the Son'a, Starfleet made some headway into the region over the next 10 years, eventually assigning a lone vessel, the Discovery, to the region. In 2384, [[Deep Space 285]] was constructed after the discovery of the Saurian Empire and in response to Romulan interests in the region. After the destruction of Genura in 2385, the Federation began to devote more diplomatic and scientific resources to the region. They were nearly all recalled after the destruction of Romulus and Remus in 2387, and what little was left was further reduced after other interstellar crises like the Vaadwuar Invasion and the Klingon Invasion. After the Gurab Crisis in 2389, Starfleet withdrew the last of its resources from the region and the border was redrawn to make [[Ba'ku]], a Federation world, inside a Federation controlled sector. The DS285 station became a backwater assignment, no longer the seat of a Sector Command or a branch of the admiralty. No Starfleet ship was assigned to the region until late 2391, when the [[USS Constitution-B]] returned to the region. The assignment of a Galaxy-Class starship is perhaps a sign of Starfleet's renewed commitment to the region as a new frontier to be explored, or perhaps, something else entirely. | Vast and untamed, the Avalon Sector has been frontier territory since the 22nd century.

The Patch is home to several varieties of stellar phenomena that make conventional warp drive, impossible. Newer, more advanced Starfleet ships are able to maintain a warp field of about warp 4, but in this vast, unexplored and dangerous patch of supernova remnants and metreon gas, it is inadvisable to go anywhere in a hurry.

But to Klingons, there is no other victory than a glorious battle, and Klach D'Kel Brakt certainly was. | ||

:The sanctuary of a group of Genurans, fleeing persecution in the Saurian Empire, the entire Genura system was destroyed when one of the stars was intentionally collapsed. A vast an incredibly advanced construct, the entire Genuran system was an astro-engineering project designed to keep the Genuran refugees safe. Due to the extreme gravimetric sheer when Genura III passed around the 3, highly volatile stars of Genura, the flow of gravity and later, the flow of time itself had to be altered as the planet made its flybys. This also unphased the planet from the normal flow of time and within the temporal bubble that encompassed Genura III, time passed more quickly. In 2385, a Saurian, known as Zeun, infiltrated the colony and came to command the Genuran religious order. He manipulated the gravimetric monitors to instead produce more gravimetric sheer to tear the unstable Genuran III star apart next time it passed it. He deceived the Genurans and established his own cult that made up 3/4 of the Genuran population. The leading Genuran scientist, known as Dorin, discovered what Zeun was planning and contacted the USS Discovery for assistance. With their help, Zeun's deception was revealed, though his sabotage could not be reversed. The Genurans were all safely evacuated before Genura C went nova and destroyed the system. The Genuran system is know the home of an extremely unusual singularity-like anomaly. | :The sanctuary of a group of Genurans, fleeing persecution in the Saurian Empire, the entire Genura system was destroyed when one of the stars was intentionally collapsed.
