Trill: Difference between revisions

As the humanoid Trill began to migrate out from the Mak'ala region thousands of years ago, it became impractical for many to make the journey to Mak'ala to request to be joined. As a result many of the Trill that made the journey to be joined were traveling merchants and traders. Due to the distance from Mak'ala it became common to transfer the Symbiont into someone close to the host when the host died.<ref name= "The Underlying Cause">[https://ordinal-ember-115916.firebaseapp.com/search.html?key=-O8Iw-1yoIPEnh1bJTiw&ship=Constitution The Underlying Cause], Lieutenant JG Indrid Yirah, {{USS|Constitution}}, 240110.03 </ref>

The Trill started keeping records of joinings in the 12th century.<ref name= "Trill MA">[https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Trill "Trill"], Memory Alpha</ref> By this time many cultures and governments had developed so there were no global regulations over who received the Symbionts. Nepotism was rampant and it became increasingly common for new hosts to reassociate with the partners of the old host, much to the detriment of Trill society. In the 13th century, representatives from each government on Trill met to decide what to do. The result of these talks was the formation of the Symbiosis Commission to regulate the joining process and new laws were put into place regarding joining such as the law banning reassociation.<ref name= "The Underlying Cause"/>
