The brief but bloody Federation - Klingon War of 2257 also saw attempted expansion into the region by both powers, although as per the Armistice- both nations agreed to pull out the region. As a result, much of The Borderlands formed part of the Klingon Neutral Zone until its dissolution following the signing of the First Khitomer Accords in 2293. For much of the 24th century, neither power showed much interest in The Borderlands aside from several skirmishes during the Federation-Klingon Cold War of 2373. The Second Khitomer Accords ceded The Borderlands to the Federation, which went uncontested by other Alpha/Beta Quadrant powers. | The brief but bloody Federation - Klingon War of 2257 also saw attempted expansion into the region by both powers, although as per the Armistice- both nations agreed to pull out the region.

Since the end of the Dominion War, Starfleet patrols of the region have been infrequent, although in recent years their number and permanency have increased. In 2391, the USS Gemini was dispatched to investigate the disappearance of the USS Hermes, which led to the establishment of the first Federation outpost in the region, [[Deep Space 224]]. The station’s mission was further enhanced by the permanent assignment of the {{USS|Resolution}} to the region in 2397.

The station’s mission was further enhanced by the permanent assignment of the {{USS|Resolution}} to the region in 2397. When that ship was destroyed the following year, the {{USS|Excalibur|A}} took over its duties. By 2399, the {{USS|Chesapeake}} and the {{USS|Berlin}} had also been assigned to patrol the region. A further four starships were assigned to the region on a semi-permanent basis. Starfleet Strategic Operations also deployed resources to combat a rising number of pirate attacks and concerns of weapons smuggling out of the ‘failed’ Earth colony Turkana IV, although political commentators expressed doubt that these efforts would meet with much success. | ||
When the {{USS|Excalibur|A}} was reassigned to the Tholian Border in early 2400, the USS Doyle-A - rechristened as the {{USS|Artemis|A}} - was dispatched in her place to keep up Starfleet's efforts in the area. | |||
