The first years of Trill development are referred to as Oras aru'Zentu'il ("Age of Spring" or "Spring Age"), as it was the age when both Trills and Symbionts were born and began to grow peacefully. | |||
Trill's first contact with alien life was in the early 21st century, when a [[Vulcan]] ship landed, proposing friendship and cultural information exchange. Trill society was deeply divided by this development, with many fearing the outsiders represented a threat to the [[Symbiont|symbionts]]. The ruling council eventually allowed for limited contact with Vulcans, but no other alien races. This first contact also led to increased security around and secrecy regarding the [[Symbiont|symbionts]]. | Trill's first contact with alien life was in the early 21st century, when a [[Vulcan]] ship landed, proposing friendship and cultural information exchange.
