History
- 2141: The Betazoid Avandar light-speed explorer makes First Contact with the Terabians, about four light-years distant. Trade missions ensue.[3][1][4]
- 2150s: Tensions start developing between Betazed and Terab IV, as mistrust of the former's telepathic capabilities increase.[3][1][4]
- 2168: An important Betazoid secularist negotiates the Terabian Armistice with Terab IV; the Betazed Ruling Council passes the Code of Sentience, outlining the limits of dealing with non-telepathic species.[3][1][4]
- 2182: The Federation makes first contact with Betazed, which the planet deals with cautiously.[1][4]
- 2273: Betazed is admitted into the United Federation of Planets as a probationary member (due largely to caste concerns).[2][1]
- 2294: The United Federation of Planets extends membership to Betazed.[3][1]

Notes
- This is the home system of the Betazoids.
- Darona, the moon of Tevixa, is the home to a small Betazoid colony. During the Dominion war, it was occupied by less than 1,000 troops.[5]
- Despite the information from Star Charts and some other "higher" licensed sources, Planets of the UFP (Last Unicorn Games) is the default source for the system and planet descriptions.
