===Exploration===
The Al-Leyans are a meticulous people, whose perfectionist outlook had an impact on the way they explored their own world, as well as space. Up until the 1930s (Earth Standard), they were preoccupied with chronicling their own planet, including the vast depths of ocean that covered a large area of its surface. As a result, by the time they took to physically exploring their solar system (which they had already pre-examined using telescopes and other scientific means) they had already charted every corner of their planet, unlike [[human|humans]], who took to space with mysteries on their homeworld still unsolved.
===Al-Leyans & The Klingons===
Once Al-Leyans had discovered warp technology and were exploring the galaxy peacefully, one of the first aliens the Al-Leyans encountered were the [[Klingon|Klingons]]. The [[Klingon|Klingons]] warned and threatened the Al-Leyans, who stayed out of harms way, until the [[Klingon|Klingons]] began plundering their resources.
When diplomatic channels were explored and rejected by the governor of the [[Klingon]] colonies who had been stealing from the Al-Leyans, a period of hostilities erupted between the two peoples. Armed Al-Leyan patrols orbited their planet and colonies within their space, and with the [[Klingon|Klingons]] seeming to send in wave after wave of attack squadrons, neither side could get the upper hand. After months of conflict, and a heavy toll on the resources of both sides, the factions lapsed into an uneasy truce, during which a technological trade was agreed.
Sitting across the negotiation table, the reason for the [[Klingon|Klingons']] accession became apparent. The Governor of their forces ruled over three colonies, and did not have the political influence to gain access to the full resources of the Empire. He dared not report his inability to conquer the Al-Leyan people to the High Council, and so wished to take them news of acquired technology instead. In return for valuable improvements to power efficiency and computer systems, they agreed to allow the Al-Leyans to take blueprints for the D-5 and Bird of Prey classes of ship. As a result, modified versions of these vessels can be found within the Al-Leyan fleet.
Years later, after the death of the [[Klingon]] governor, the colonies rescinded their peace treaty with the Al-Leyans, believing that their system rightfully belonged to the [[Klingon]] Empire. Naturally the Al-Leyans resisted, and the cold war between the Al-Leyans and the [[Klingon]] colonial power has resumed.
==Government==
The Al-Leyans operate under a world unitary government. While many of the different nation states on Luraul have their own councils which may govern local policies, each of these nations subscribes to the global government through the attendance of representatives from each region.
==Description==
Al-Leyans phsyically resemble [[human|humans]] in many ways, the two biggest differences being that their ears curve to a slight point, and their eyes glow in dim or gloomy conditions when reflecting light rays. Their skin ranges from alabaster, through sunkissed, to olive and light brown depending on climate. Al-Leyans living in polar regions have lighter skin, as opposed to those living in tropical climes having darker skin.
==Physiology==
Al-Leyan physiology is similar to humans. Their ears are slightly pointed, not as much as [[Vulcans]], but enough to help amplify sounds.
===Senses===
====Taste====
Al-Leyans have about 5,000 tastebuds, and can taste bitter, salt, and acidic flavours, and to a lesser degree sweetness, and spicey foods.
====Smell====
Al-Leyans smell sense is more poor then humans. Where Humans have about 10 cm² of olfactory epithelium Al-Leyans only have 7.3  cm² of olfactory epithelium. This difference is significant enough that al-leyans wouldn't be able to smell a chunk of meat dangling 1 meter from their head, but it has been noted in scientific research that al-leyans can distinguish certain smells from far away.
====Hearing====
Al-Leyans have great hearing. They can hear as low as 35hertz to as high as 62,000 hertz. Their ears are tipped but not as pronounced as vulcans, this helps amplify some of the sounds they hear in the higher frequencies. Al-Leyans hearing is so good they are able to hear great detail, from quite far distances.
====Sight==== 
Al-Leyans have good vision, both during day and in the night. However Al-Leyans vision in the day is not as good as it is in the  night. Al-Leyan's are use to dimmer lighting then it is on earth. During the day time their eyesight are as good as humans though their visual acuity isn't as good. Most Al-Leyans wear glasses during the daytime to help correct this problem, but it doesn't give them the same acuity as homo sapiens.
At night though an Al-Leyans eyesight is six times better then humans. This is because Al-Leyan's have a larger Anterior chamber, and lens, as well as a wider pupil. The Al-leyan eye's retinae has mostly rod receptors which is sensitive to low light levels and movement. They also have some cone receptors, which helps make them distinguish up to 6 million(humans see 10million) different colors, however in day time, these cone receptors primarily are suppose to enhance their vision during the daytime, causing them to see color in a higher saturation.
Al-Leyans also have a layered structure at the back of the eye, behind the retina called Tapetum Lucidum. This mirrorlike structure reflects light (that hasn't already been absorbed by the eye) back into the eye a second time to help produce a brighter image. The tapetum lucidum causes their eyes to glow at night when a light is shone on them.
Al-Leyans have highly developed binocular vision like humans. Binocular vision enables them to judge distances when jumping. They have broadly elliptical pupils which appear round when dilated at night, but elliptical during the day.
In addition to uppoer and lower eyelids, Al-Leyans also have a nictitaing membrane, which help keeps the eyes moist and removes dust from the surface. Al-Leyan's only require 1/6th the light humans do to see
The senses for the Al-Leyan are unique among intelligent species. They have almost no sense of smell. Sometimes even an object held close to their nose can not be smelled if the odour is too weak. Next is their sense of taste. Due to certain environmental influences their taste buds are fairly ineffectual. It takes extremes in flavour or taste for them to notice it. Most noticable sweet or spicy foods. In fact their native dish's are considered too sweet or spicy for most other species.
====Circulatory System====
Al-Leyan blood is based on nickel, giving it a very dark hue, extremely close to black. This is particularly noticeable due to the trace amount of this element in their blood, which is approximately one and a half times more than that of [[human|humans]].
====Evolutionary Traits====
Due to the heightened gravity of Leya-I, Al-Leyans have denser muscle fiber than some other aliens, allowing for greater than average [[MA:humanoid|humanoid]] strength.
The atmosphere on the Al-Leyan homeworld is more dense than on some M-Class worlds. As a result, an Al-Leyan serving on a Starfleet vessel may suffer from some or all of the symptoms of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asthma asthma] as a result of a thinner atmosphere than is comfortable. This is treatable by a course of steroid-based medication, which facilitates breathing in such an environment.
==Psychology==
Al-Leyan psychology has come about as a result of their evolution. Their main instinct, as with other humanoids, is that of self-preservation, but it manifests through always being thorough and minimising risk. Much of the Al-Leyans' technological development reflects this methodology, as everything is tested rigorously to ensure the highest level of safety before implementation.
==Society==
The Al-Leyans are a somewhat conservative race, and have deliberately slowed the rate of technical progression on their world to ensure maximum safety. In the approach to their current technology level, they did not go through a stage of burning fossil fuels, as studies showed the level of damage that it would do to their ecology to be unacceptable. Instead they worked on developing hydroelectric, tidal and solar power plants, which they fine-tuned to peak efficiency. This meant that they were able to depend solely on these forms of eco-friendly, emission-free energies to power their planet for centuries. However, the demands of modern technology have necessitated further development of power-sources, and a slight pollution of the planet's atmosphere was unavoidable. Scientists continually research ways to maximise power-production efficiency, and this has become a major branch of Al-Leyan science.
One of the reasons for this cautious approach could be explained by the fact that for many generations, areas of the Al-Leyan landmasses were uninhabitable as a result of toxic, gaseous emissions from volcanic strata beneath the surface. While plant-life and some insects were able to evolve in these locations, some of which are exotic in appearance, it was not possible for [[MA:humanoid|humanoids]] to colonise the areas concerned until the gases naturally dissipated.
===Raising Children===
When an Al-Leyan is born, the mother does not look after her child until the child is 10 years of age. The children are taken into care by an organisation named Haemachuo, which looks after the people's children for 10 years, bringing them up in a secure, peaceful environment.
Haemachuo was founded in 1728 when the Yul'shan party came into power in one of Luraul's more prominent provinces. The institution was set up to mould the future of all Al-Leyans, beginning by moulding infants into model members of society. The public agreed and voted for the idea, due to the Haemachuo manifesto, which offered  “a better and brighter future” and equality for all infants, whether rich or poor. In 1973 Haemachuo was adopted by both ruling Al-Leyan demi-global governments and took its place planetwide.
Workers of the institution are trained to notice any certain developmental difficulties a child may have, and act upon it, before the it can reach a stage where it may cause problems in adult life. At the present time, there is customarily one Haemachuo carer to 4 children.
Haemachuo have certain requisites that workers have to meet. One such requirement is that they may not have children of their own. The pay at the instituion is one of the highest salaries available on the planet, and is generally popular among young female Al-Leyans that are studying at university. A Haemachuo carer is trained for a full Al-Leyan year before they are ready to care for a group of children.
[[Image:AlLeyanBuilding.jpg|thumb|150px|''An example of typical Al-Leyan architecture''.]]
==Culture==
Al-Leyan architecture is striking by design, and is reminsicent of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brutalism brutalist] movement on Earth, although more decorative and much less plain. Glass and stone are the most common materials for Al-Leyan buildings.
Much of the plant life on Leya-I is bland to the taste, which provides a strong reason for the Al-Leyans having never evolved a strong sense of taste or smell. Al-Leyan cuisine tends to be either strongly sweet or strongly spicy, which can prove to be quite unpalatable for some other [[MA:humanoid|humanoid]] species.
===Festivals===
There are many festivals that are practised in different areas around Luraul, in many of its different regions. One of the most notable festivals takes place on an island slightly south of the equator, where the Al-Leyan New Year is celebrated by a fireworks display in each of nine cities built around a large bay. Each city also serves as host to a large street party, attended by the majority of the local residents.
===Sports===
'''''Qu'cha''''' is the Al-Leyan's most popular sport, and favorite past-time. It has been played for centuries, and games were played competitively. Recently since “Federationism” The league has been reformed and become slightly more commercial to appeal to off-worlders.
Qu'cha is a team sport played by two teams of 14 players. The goal is to score points by throwing two tennis-sized balls, and touching a series of 5 bases arranged in a pentagon. Players on the throwing team take turns throwing the two balls against the fielding team which tries to stop them from scoring points by getting the throwers out in any of the several ways. A player on the throwing team can stop at any of the bases and later advance via a teammate's throw. The teams switch between batting and fielding whenever the fielding team records ten outs, or has thrown their overs. One turn at throwing for each team constitutes an inning; four innings make up a professional game. The team with the most points at the end of the game wins.
Gameplay starts with a thrower standing at home plate, holding both balls. The thrower throws both balls out into the field of play. Once the balls are in the field of play, the thrower must begin running toward first base, at which point the player is referred to as a runner. A thrower-runner who reaches first base without being out is said to be safe and is now on base. A thrower-runner may choose to remain at first base or attempt to advance to second base or even beyond — however far the player believes can be reached safely. Each base a runner reaches scores ¼ of a point, and a full point once he reaches back the home base. A runner can score a maximun of 2 points.
Any runners already on base may attempt to advance on thrown balls before or after the ball lands; a runner on first base must attempt to advance. If the ball is thrown in the air and caught before it lands, the thrower is out and any runners on base may attempt to advance.
While the team at throw is trying to score points, the team in the field is attempting to record outs. Among the various ways a member of the throwing team may be put out, five are most common:
* When a runner who is touched by a ball thrown by the fielder, or tagged by the fielder holding the ball
* When one of the balls thrown is caught in the field before touching the ground.
* When both balls are returned to home in the basket and the runners haven't reached there bases.
* When a fielder has the ball and reaches the base before the runner

Al-Leyan technology is advanced, and considered to be on a par with comparable [[MA:United Federation of Planets|Federation]] worlds. However, their rigorous attitude to safety has led to some important regulations on the use of technology on their homeworld. MAGLEV trains are used as the primary form of transportation, despite the development of the transporter. This is due to initial problems with transporter systems and the risk of accident through transporter malfunction. Having conducted a detailed analysis, the Al-Leyans have ruled that MAGLEV is the safest method of transport, and thus transporters were declared illegal.
In addition to this, as a measure of ecological control, four large space stations orbit the planet to serve as quarantine sectors. No items that may cause harm, even if inadvertent, to the planet's ecosystem are permitted to be taken to the planet's surface.
While research is still conducted into technological development by some companies on Luraul, the period of technological boom has come to a close. Progress made is steady, but directed into certain areas, such as the construction of shuttlecraft, and research into artificial intelligence. During the initial technological boom, Al-Leyans made significant strides in many different areas, including power management (Solar and Geothermal), multimedia devices (cameras, headphones and speakers), transport (MAGLEV trains), chronometers, robotics and space vehicles (culminating in the Warp 4 engine). They also developed an extremely sophisticated coffee-maker as a response to demand for their trademark coffee bean, and designed it to brew the best possible cup of coffee that they could market.
While Al-Leyans are not widely renowned for their Engineering this is not due to a lack of competence - they have reached a technological stage with which they are comfortable, and most now prefer to direct their time and effort towards less pressured pursuits.
==Economy==
Al-Leyan coffee is much sweeter than its [[human]] and [[Klingon]] counterparts. While the Al-Leyans themselves find their coffee to be somewhat bitter, they have found that its sweetness to other races has made it highly marketable. A [[human]] coffee connoisseur once referred to the Al-Leyan blend as "sweeter and smoother than a Honduras blend, and highly likeable. Even more so than Guatemalan." As such, Al-Leyan coffee beans are a valuable export.
The Al-Leyan monetary system can be confusing to off-worlders as it operates on a nonary system.
==Military==


The Al-Leyan fleet is characterised by divergent classifications of the [[Klingon]] D-5 and Bird-of-Prey models. While these ships are outwardly recognised as their [[Klingon]] ancestors, many upgrades and/or divergent developments have been made by the Al-Leyan companies responsible for the upkeep of the military.
