History
- Historical: Altair VI is the ancient homeworld of the Krell, while Altair IV is one of their colonial worlds.[1][2]
- No time frame is provided and no knowledge of this species is available.
- 2115: Altairians found a colony on Altair IV, in cooperation with the earlier Human colonies in-system.[3]
- 2210: Smoldering tension develops between the Altairians, Humans, & Palkeo Est of Altairs III & IV and the Altairian & Human government on Altair VI.[3]
- 2255: The Altairian government takes part in the peace conference on Axanar, to negotiate its defense and return to the Federation.[3]
- February 2261: The Klingon Empire provides overt support to the Monarchist Front on Altair IV. This leads to a considerable increase in tensions between the indigenous Palkeo Est and the Altairians and Humans that have resided there for generations.[4][3]
- November 16th, 2261: In what becomes termed the Third Battle of Altair, the Monarchist Front attacks large numbers of targets on Altair IV, including government buildings, cultural sites important to Altairian & Human citizens, and shipping—grounded and orbital—associated with any species not aligned with the Palkeo Est nor Klingons.[3]
- The UFP and Klingon Empire both deploy starships to the region to ensure "their" side does not face intervention.
- April 4th, 2263: Following assertive diplomatic efforts by the UFP, Altair IV and Altair VI sign the Altair Accords, declaring a ceasefire between the indigenous Palkeo Est and the central authority on Altair VI and (apparently) resolving the cultural, economic, and governance issues that came to a head during the Third Battle of Altair.[3]
- March 2264: Klingon Imperial Intelligence begins arming the Monarchist Front on Altair IV with weaponry.[4][3]
- April 1st, 2264: The Altair Accords implode and, on Altair IV, hostilities from the Monarchist Front resume, empowered by Klingon weapons.[4][3]
- March 30th 2267: Altair IV formerly declares its independence from Altair VI, leading to open conflict.[1][2]
- November 28th 2267: The Federation intervenes in the Altair conflict with peacekeepers and negotiates a resolution wherein all the inhabitants of the Altair system agree to a joint role in the new government, situated on Altair VI. The Federation also agrees to build a hospital on Altair IV.[1][2]
- 2269: The inhabitants of the Altair system rejoin the UFP as the "Altair Quadrant".[3][5]
Important Locations

Notes
- This is the homeworld of the Palkeo Est.
- As with Altair III, it is possible the Human colonists developed a collaborative society with the indigenous Palkeo Est.
