The Da'al homeworld–also known by its planetary designation Meranuge IV–was first charted by a Federation deep space probe in 2227, but its remoteness and proximity to Klingon space ensured that the planet would go largely unexplored for the next six decades. In the late 23rd century, the Federation–Klingon peace allowed further exploration of the area and Federation scientists determined that the Da'al had developed faster-than-light travel by 2297. | |||
First contact between the Federation and the Da'al took place in 2300, and the Da'al encountered the Klingons for the first time the following year. The Da'al principles of neutrality and non-alignment seemed at odds with forging bonds of friendship with alien species, and the Federation's overtures of friendship were largely rebuffed. | |||
The Da'al continued to explore their space with infrequent contact from outsiders over the decades. By 2393, they had established at least one off-world colony within their star system, and two research outposts in the neighboring star system. | |||

In late 2397, the prime minister, [[Ypartin]], attempted a self-coup, assisted by the Klingons and Da'al mercenaries. The attempt failed and Ypartin was deposed, however public confidence in the government was dealt a crippling blow. Ypartin was jailed and charged with treason, but escaped off-world before he could be brought to trial, and his whereabouts are currently unknown. The planet currently has a provisional government, led by [[Zeneth]], a military advisor to the previous constitutional government. | In late 2397, the prime minister, [[Ypartin]], attempted a self-coup, assisted by the Klingons and Da'al mercenaries.
