==History==
They became a unified people early in their history and expanded to settle just about every section of their world. Even in the early days they understood the need to redirect their natural aggressive tendencies towards other endeavours. As a result they developed a number of highly competitive physically demanding sports as a way to deal with this problem.
It was only after they discovered space travel that they first learned about war. As a result they quickly built a large fleet of war ships with which to defend themselves. Almost 200 years later they made contact with the USS Antigua. This almost resulted in hostilities except for the natural abilities of the Starfleet Captain. Less than 50 years later the Zaldan became members of the Federation.
==Government==
They have a unique government that reflects their culture in the fact that physical competition and challenges are an intricate part of their daily parliamentary procedures.
==Description==
They are humanoid in appearance save for a webbed membrane between the fingers and slightly amphibious features. On the whole they tend to have a reddish weather beaten complexion and dark hair. The men tend to be 6'2" to 6'4" and the women tend to be 6' to 6'2".
==Physiology==
They tend to be athletic and tall with well developed musculatures. They have a high resistance to pain and while they suffer from a normal range of medical conditions they also seem to be fairly resistant to most common viral infections.
==Psychology==
They tend to have a higher level of aggressive behaviour than most species but are able to control this with ease. They are also highly competitive athletes and tend to do very well in all physically demanding sports. Other than that they suffer from a normal range of mental issues.
==Religion==
Unknown at this time.
==Mythology==
Unknown at this time.
==Society==
Considering how blunt and direct they are one would expect a higher level of civil unrest or disruptions but crime is almost unheard of and civil unrest never occurs. They have a fairly happy society with any personnel differences being dealt with in a very quick yet effective manner. 
==Culture==
Soft soothing melodies and tranquil nature pictures/paintings form the majority of their artistic efforts.
==Customs==
As a culture, Zaldans are infuriated by courtesy, viewing it as a form of phoney social behaviour designed to camouflage true feelings. This has meant they have found integration into the galactic society difficult. Once this is taken into account, however, they are a friendly and helpful people.
==Technology==
They are slightly behind most Federation member species.
==Economy==
They are self sufficient and while that do have a wide range of export goods they tend to have difficulty finding and keeping trading partners. Still even with this they have a strong economy and a few long term trade partners.
==Military==
Before becoming a member of the Federation they had a large fleet of military ships with larger than normal complements of infantry. Since then they have sold off all these ships and now serve in the Federation. Due to their background they are one of the few species that have been allowed to provide the entire crew for a ship in Starfleet. In fact they have consistently had more than 1 ship with a complete Zaldan crew ever since the 10th anniversary of their acceptance into the Federation.
==Federation Intelligence Files==
In late 2366 a Borg cube invaded Federation space and due to the Borg's vastly superior power Starfleet suffered a disastrously one-sided battle with the cube, called the [[ma:Battle of Wolf 359|Battle of Wolf 359]]. [[ma:A fleet of 40 starships|A fleet of 40 starships]] assembled to combat the cube, and 39 of those ships were completely destroyed, with the cube emerging unscathed. 2 of these vessels were crewed completely by Zaldan crews.
