After accidentally and unknowingly removing a symbiotic lifeform from its homeworld during their research, the Kreetassans, in about early 2152, paid a visit to [[ma:Enterprise NX-01|Enterprise NX-01]], making first contact with Humans then. However, the Kreetassans were offended when they saw the crew of Enterprise eating food in public, which caused them to storm off the ship in rage, very soon after arriving. They departed just as the organism was transferred to Enterprise and took over a cargo bay there. Shortly afterwards, the Kreetassans studied Enterprise's database and found learning the English language to be very easy. Their anger was alleviated when [[ma:Mayweather, Travis|Travis Mayweather]] profusely apologized on behalf of Enterprise's entire crew and assured them that no insult was intended. After accepting the apology, the Kreetassans sent Enterprise coordinates of the organism's homeworld, allowing the lifeform to be returned there.

In late 2152, Enterprise visited Kreetassa to make up for the political mishap a year earlier. They were invited down to the Hall of Diplomacy, and after sending the Kreetassans their genome, Captain [[ma:Archer, Jonathan|Jonathan Archer]], [[ma:Sato, Hoshi|Hoshi Sato]], [[ma:T'Pol|T’Pol]], and [[ma:Porthos|Porthos]] (the captain's dog) went down to the planet. After the initial meetings went well, the Kreetassans were shocked and sent them back to Enterprise, for reasons the Enterprise crew couldn't comprehend. After asking the Kreetassans what had happened, T'Pol informed Captain Archer that Porthos had urinated on one of the sacred Alvera trees.

After asking the Kreetassans what had happened, they were informed that their dog (called Porthos) had urinated on one of the sacred Alvera trees.
   
   
To apologize to the head of the Kreetassan government, the Enterprise crew asked that Archer perform a ritual. In a ringed area inside the Hall of Diplomacy, he would have to cut the tree's trunk on a special base with a chainsaw, and arrange the five-centimeter-thick rings in a special pattern. Throughout the whole ceremony, he would wear beads in a special pattern in his hair and have Kreetassan markings on his chest in red ink. At the conclusion, he had to say a message in the Kreetassan language.

After the ceremony, the Kreetassans happily gave them the plasma injector they needed, and also an additional two spares. A Kreetassan merchant also recommended a mining colony as a source for deuterium.

==Description==
==Description==
Kreetassans were a humanoid race who had an elaborate facial structure. They had heavily ridged faces with a row of purple-tinged rectangular scutes along the midline of the forehead (nose to hairline), covering one-third of its width. They wore their hair long and in braids, and dressed in long, brown, embellished gowns.

===Kreetassan language===
The Kreetassan language was the spoken language of the Kreetassans. It was relatively very difficult to master, as sometimes one word could have a dozen different meanings. In fact, noted communications officer Hoshi Sato struggled to learn Kreetassan and once commented that it had the most subtle contextual variations she had ever seen in any language. The words "eat" and "mate" were very similar, and both were done privately in their society.
During ritual sectioning of an alvera tree, the person who was performing the splicing of the tree had to repeatedly state the Kreetassan phrase, "Deelos takaa, seely estos oor-rah. Tenvla nikot pranab boko oor-tah."
===Vocabulary===
Tostka = "insult"
Sasooratt = Roughly, "Open the doors"
Hwajat = A verb meaning both "mate" and "eat," depending on phonetic emphasis; the former was conveyed by emphasizing the first syllable, thus pronouncing the word "HWA-jat".
Examples of spoken Kreetassan
Kjass skjask las? = "What did we do wrong?"
Hwajat ajhakjahs! = "You eat like you mate!"
Jhaaratun yiitooratt loorii = "Whatever we've done to offend you, I apologize."

Kreetassa was one of the worlds that accepted Federation refugees in the wake of the Borg Invasion of 2381.
In 2395, a civilian Kreetassan trade vessel suffered heavy damage when a 21st century human land vehicle collided into the trade ship. Vidaliak is demanding full compensation and an investigation as to how the vehicle went unnoticed in the Sol system for so long. <ref>[https://fednewsservice.com/2018/02/09/civilian-kreetassan-ship-collides-21st-century-earth-relic/ ''Civilian Kreetassan ship collides with 21st century Earth relic]'', [[Federation News Service]]</ref>
 
While looking for Menos in the Pernaia system, T'Pol encountered a large Kreetassan man.
{{References}}
===Kreetassa===
Kreetassa is a class M planet located within 120 light-years of Earth. It is the home world of a humanoid race called the Kreetassans.
===Alvera tree===
The alvera tree was a woody plant, native to Kreetassa. It was considered by the Kreetassans to be a cultural treasure. A stand of alvera trees outside the planet's Hall of Diplomacy was, by 2152, over 300 years old.
When in 2152 Enterprise NX-01 visited Kreetassa to negotiate for a new plasma injector, Captain Archer's pet beagle Porthos urinated on one of the 300-year-old alvera trees outside the Hall of Diplomacy. The Kreetassans were insulted, and demanded Archer and his crew return to their ship.
Archer was ultimately required to perform a Kreetassan reconciliation ritual in order to apologize for defacing the tree. Ironically, the ritual itself involved the cutting of Alvera trees into pieces with a chainsaw.
===Onna Karapleedeez===
Onna Karapleedeez was a well-known female Kreetassan Starfleet career officer who served in the mid-24th century.
In the year 2359, Karapleedeez had achieved the rank of captain and was commanding officer of the Federation starship USS Mary Kingsley on a two-year Beta Quadrant survey, including mapping of the Scorpius Reach and assisting an archeological team from Centauri University in recovering a survivor from a Manraloth stasis field.
Karapleedeez died under mysterious circumstances in 2364, possibly a victim of the bluegill neural parasite aliens that had infiltrated Starfleet Command.
===Emro Ganazeel===
Emro Ganazeel was a tall Kreetassan male Starfleet officer in the late 24th century.
Lieutenant Ganazeel served as deputy station chief of the Rellon Station on Pyrellia in the year 2381.
===Rellon Station===
Rellon Station was a Starfleet base in the population center of Rellon Ta on Pyrellia in the late 24th century.
In mid-October 2381, Lieutenant Dina Elfiki, chief science officer aboard the USS Enterprise, was brought to Rellon Station after being found crawling out of Pyrellia's sunside wastes, dehydrated and barely conscious. Federation Department of Temporal Investigations agent Shelan arrived not long afterwards to take her into protective custody.
The deputy station chief at this time was Lieutenant Emro Ganazeel, a Kreetassan male.
===Kreetassan starship===
A Kreetassan starship was a type of starship utilized by the Kreetassans during the mid-22nd century. These vessels had warp capability and were about 100 meters long.
In circa 2152, a Kreetassan starship, having accidentally and unknowingly picked up a symbiotic lifeform during a survey of the organism's homeworld, briefly docked with the Earth Starfleet ship Enterprise NX-01. The Kreetassan ship departed just as the organism entered Enterprise through a docking bay on the port side of the craft. Later responding to a hail from Enterprise, the Kreetassan vessel contacted the Starfleet craft, transmitting from the Kreetassan ship's bridge, and sent Enterprise the coordinates of the symbiotic organism's homeworld, to where the lifeform was safely returned.
