Bajor's location is of great strategic important in the [[MA:Alpha Quadrant|Alpha Quadrant]] as it lies very close to a stable [[MA:wormhole|wormhole]]. Traffic through the [[MA:Bajoran wormhole|Bajoran wormhole]] is co-ordinated by the joint [[MA:United Federation of Planets|Federation]]/[[Bajoran]] administrated space station, ''[[MA:Deep Space 9|Deep Space Nine]]''. In 2388, Bajor became a member of the Federation.

==History==
[[Image:Bajoran Map.gif|thumb|150px|''Physical map of Bajor''.]]
[[Bajoran]] history can be loosely split up into ages. It is worth noting that the [[Bajoran]] civilisation is among one of the oldest in the galaxy, dating back some 500,000 years. The table below contains significant dates present in Earth-Gregorian format.


===Timeline===
{| border="1" cellpadding="2"
!width="100"|Date
!width="800"|Event
|-
|c. 27,672 B.C.|| First Republic (aka First Age). Many artistic masterpieces and cultural treasures were completed during this time.
|-
|c. 19,672 B.C.|| Second Age. During this period of time, the planet fell into a long period of civil conflicts and changes of philosophy and attitude ensued.
|-
|c. 18,672 B.C. || Second Republic. A period of cultural stability and enlightenment that spanned millennia. During this time the D’jarra system was in use. Considerable scientific and cultural progress was made during this time.
|-
|2328 || [[Cardassian|Cardassians]] land on Bajor. Ill-prepared for an alien invasion, the [[Bajoran|Bajorans]] were easily subdued by the [[Cardassian]] people, leading to four decades of occupation. During this timeframe, the [[Cardassian|Cardassians]] began to strip-mine Bajor for resources needed to support their own homeworld. Resistance fighters fought the invasionary force using terrorism and guerrilla warfare. Many [[Bajoran|Bajorans]] were displaced from their homeworld over the course of the Occupation, mostly ending up in refugee camps. Some joined [[MA:Starfleet|Starfleet]], and a number of [[Bajoran|Bajorans]] serve on [[MA:Starfleet|Starfleet]] ships at the present time.
|-
|2369 || [[Cardassian|Cardassians]] withdraw from Bajor.  The costs of occupying the planet due to Resistance activity resulted in the recommendation to abandon the planet being approved. [[MA:Terok Nor|Terok Nor]], the mining station that orbited the planet, was renamed [[MA:Deep Space 9|Deep Space Nine]] in an agreement with the [[MA:United Federation of Planets|Federation]], who had been invited to assist in the station’s administration.
|-
|2369 || [[MA:Bajoran Wormhole|Bajoran Wormhole]] discovered. The discovery of the [[MA:Alpha Quadrant|Alpha Quadrant’s]] first stable [[MA:wormhole|wormhole]] in the [[MA:Denorios belt|Denorios Belt]], terminating in an orbit of the [[MA:Idran|Idran]] star in the [[MA:Gamma Quadrant|Gamma Quadrant]], placed Bajor on the intergalactic political map with a vengeance.
|-
|2369 || [MA:Kai|Kai]] [[MA:Opaka|Opaka]] is left in the [[MA:Gamma Quadrant|Gamma Quadrant]] after being killed in a shuttle accident and revived by nanotechnology.
|-
|2371 || [[MA:Dominon|Dominion]] Cold War. After the eradication of the population of [[MA:New Bajor|New Bajor]], the first Bajoran colony in the [[MA:Gamma Quadrant|Gamma Quadrant]], Bajor was drawn into a cold war with the [[MA:Dominion|Dominion]] alongside its [[MA:United Federation of Planets|Federation]] allies. Fears that Bajor could be the first victim of an invasion fleet led to the bolstering of [[MA:Deep Space 9|Deep Space Nine’s]] defences and the assignment of the [[MA:USS Defiant (NX-74205)|U.S.S. Defiant]] to the sector.
|-
|2373 || The lost city of [[MA:B'hala|B’hala]] is rediscovered by [[MA:Benjamin Sisko|Benjamin Sisko]].
|-
|2373 || Bajor’s application to become a member of the [[MA:United Federation of Planets|Federation]] was accepted, but on the recommendation of the [[MA:Emissary|Emissary of the Prophets]], [[MA:Kai|Kai]] [[MA:Winn Adami|Winn]] withdrew. It was expected that Bajor would re-petition to join soon afterward.
|-
|2373 || [[MA:Dominion War|Dominion War]]. While the [[MA:United Federation of Planets|Federation]] and the [[MA:Klingon Empire|Klingon Empire]] found themselves at war with the [[MA: Dominion|Dominion]], Bajor, at the behest of the [[MA:Emissary|Emissary of the Prophets]], Captain [[MA:Benjamin Sisko|Benjamin Sisko]], signed a non-aggression treaty to keep them out of the fighting. When [[MA:Deep Space 9|Deep Space Nine]] was commandeered by [[MA:Dominion|Dominion]] forces in 2373, Major [[MA:Kira Nerys|Kira Nerys]] of the [[Bajoran]] militia led a secret Resistance cell designed to prevent the [[MA:Dominion|Dominion]] from bringing reinforcements through the [[MA:Bajoran Wormhole|wormhole]]. Despite the failure of the cell, the invasionary fleet would be scuttled by the [[Aliens, Wormhole|Prophets]] themselves after an appeal by the [[MA:Emissary|Emissary]].
|-
|2374 || The ''Reckoning'', a battle between a [[Aliens, Wormhole|Prophets]] and a [[Ma:Pah-wraith|Pah-wraith]], takes place on ''[[MA:Deep Space 9|Deep Space Nine]]''. If the [[MA:Prophet|Prophet]] wins, it will usher in the Golden Age of Bajor. However, the event does not run to a natural conclusion as [[MA:Kai|Kai]] [[MA: Winn Adami|Winn]] bombards the location of the battle with [[MA:Chroniton|chroniton]] radiation.
|-
|2375 || The [[MA:Dominion|Dominion]] is defeated and the war concludes.
|-
|2388 || Despite [[Battle for Bajor|tumultuous events]] leading up to the final ceremonies, Bajor becomes a member of the Federation.
