Rigel V
Location: Beta Rigel
Names: Rigel V, Beta Rigel A V, V'geln
History
- 453: A Debrune fleet led by Vice Admiral Torek—splintered off from the Romulan diaspora—invades and settles on Rigel V, entering into conflict with the native and primitive Kaylar.[1]
- These Debrune will name themselves V'gelnians (after their name for Rigel V) and will eventually refer to themselves as Zami.
- 553: The Zami and Kaylar settle into their preferred parts of Rigel V, ending the conflict, with the Zami entering into trade deals with the neighboring Orions.[1]
- 2184: The Rigelians and Kaylar (of Beta Rigel IV and V) join the United Federation of Planets.[2]
- 2293: Following an investigation by Star Fleet that uncovers prostitution, illegal animal trading, and child slavery as endemic to the culture and government of Beta Rigel IV and V, both planets are immediately suspended from the Federation.[3]
- 2297: After very public internal investigations and prosecutions of the identified slavers, Beta Rigel IV and V are re-admitted into the Federation.[4]
- The expulsion and re-admission is SFC-canon; the date of admission is from the source.
