Events

• The USS Enterprise, NCC-1701-D is severely damaged following an attempt to destroy the Borg cube, and is unable to join the fleet massed at Wolf 359. William T. Riker is field-promoted to captain of the Enterprise. At the Battle of Wolf 359, a total of 39 Federation starships are destroyed by the Borg and 11,000 lives are lost, including Benjamin Sisko's wife, Jennifer Sisko. The cube is eventually destroyed in orbit of Earth.

• A number of individuals from both the ships at Wolf 359 and other vessels in the area are captured and assimilated by the Borg while en route to Sector 001. Some are returned to the Delta Quadrant by unknown means.

• The Borg implants are removed from Picard, and he returns to command of the Enterprise, although he requires several weeks of therapy. Riker returns to his post as First Officer.

• Chancellor (External Link) K'mpec of the Klingon High Council dies, causing a power struggle between Duras and Gowron. Picard is appointed as Arbiter of Succession. Duras murders Ambassador K'Ehleyr after she discovers evidence of treachery and collusion with the Romulans by the House of Duras. Worf then claims right of vengeance against Duras, killing him.

• Vulcan Ambassador T'Pel is discovered to be a Romulan spy. She is unwittingly returned to a Romulan vessel, with many Federation secrets, before the deception is uncovered.

• Peaceful relations are solidified between the Federation and the Cardassian Union, ending years of war and bloodshed between the two powers.

• Internal tensions in the Klingon Empire affect the Federation when it is suspected a Klingon exchange officer provided information about the Galaxy-class warp core to the Romulans, causing an explosion on board the Enterprise-D.

• Romulans abduct Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge and use a brainwashing technique to instruct him to murder the Klingon governor of Krios. The plan is thwarted, and further Romulan/Klingon cooperation uncovered.

• The Klingon Civil War begins as Gowron is installed as leader of the High Council. Gowron is opposed by Duras' sisters, Lursa and B'Etor, who are supported and supplied by the Romulans. Worf resigns his Star Fleet commission to fight with Gowron, and his honor within the Klingon Empire is restored.

• The Trill Jadzia is joined with the Dax symbiont; Curzon, the previous host, dies.

• Telek R'Mor of the Romulan Astrophysical Academy dies before he can send messages he received from the stranded starship USS Voyager in the year 2371 in the Delta Quadrant.

• Q takes Vash on a two-year journey through the Gamma Quadrant.
