==History==
* [[2075]]: The Zaranites make First Contact (unofficially) with a Human colony expedition made up of (at least partially) Augments, who attempt to enslave them but are defeated.<ref name=Triangle>[https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Triangle_(novel) Memory Beta: "''Triangle''" (novel)]</ref><ref name=SFC>SFC</ref>

* [[2257]]: The Federation makes its first official contact with the Zaranites, who petition for (and receive) Protectorate status.<ref name=Zaranite>[https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Zaranite Memory Beta: "Zaranite"]</ref>

* [[2268]]: The [[United Federation of Planets]] extends membership to [[Zaran II]].<ref name=trekbbs>[https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/members-of-the-federation.237538/page-9#post-10161076 TrekBBS: "Members of the Federation"]</ref><ref name=SFC>SFC</ref>

==Important Locations==
* ''list known locations that have game implications (ex: defense bases, depots, etc.); otherwise, "None"

==Notes==
* This is the homesystem of the Zaranites.

* The source novel has the Augments enslave the Zaranites, until freed with the assistance of Kirk and Spock in [[2274]]. That seems improbably with the understanding of modern ''Trek'' Augments, so instead SFC-canon has this as the Zaronites' first encounter with Humanity.
