Over time they developed contacts with other species. Mostly these were peaceful, some were agressive and with the Klingons it was down right hostile. At one point it almost broke out into another war. As a result of this anti-Klingon sentiment they were receptive to the idea of allying themselves with the Velorians. Following the Hobus star disaster inside the Romulan empire the talks took on a new aspect and eventually resulted in the formation of the [[Thracian Alliance]]. | Over time they developed contacts with other species.

Klingon records | Most of the medical data available has been obtained from Klingon records. They seem to indicate that as a species the Ameone are very healthy. They have a high tolerance to many different climates and environments. A strong immune system that prevents most infections and diseases from becoming to dangerous.
