'''Meranuge IV''', also known as '''Da’al''', is the fourth planet of the [[Meranuge system]] in [[the Borderlands]]. Being a [[Planetary Classification#Class M|class M planet]], Meranuge IV can support most humanoid life, but has higher than usual level of UV radiation, which may cause medical issues to some non-native species if untreated. The planet is noted for it's rings.

The planet is noted for its rings.


Meranuge IV is the homeworld of the [[Da'al|Da’al]], an independent warp-capable species. The Da’al have colonised other planets in the system and beyond, but have decided to remain neutral in relation to major factions of the region, namely the [[United Federation of Planets|Federation]] and the [[Klingon Empire]].

One of the landmarks of Vdam is the government complex, which includes the Prime Minister's official residence and offices. The complex consists of several tall buildings with small footprint. The architecture of the complex is plain with little decoration on its facade. The buildings of the complex and its gate are made of concrete or similar material.

The city was struck by a meteor in 2400, with inital estimations indicating that approximately 10,000 Da’al had died and the infrastructure of the city was estimated to been largely destroyed or damaged.

La'kso Canyon was a hiding place for the group that had redirected the meteor to Tecra. While camping in the Canyon in 240005, a group of Starfleet officers of the {{USS|Artemis|A}} happened to come across with members of that group patrolling the area. After subduing the patrollers, the ensigns and their senior officers discovered the hidden hangar and the vessel that had been used to redirect the meteor.<ref name="Suspicious visitors" /><ref>[https://groups.google.com/g/sb118-artemis/c/Ji3EJiAL00g A Hell of A Ride], Lt Dakora, {{USS|Artemis|A}}, 240005.22</ref>
