During the 2370s, the Borg were beset by several major setbacks in the [[Delta Quadrant]], all witnessed by the crew of the USS Voyager. The Borg-[[Species 8472]] War decimated the Collective from 2373-2374. ''Voyager'''s liberation of Seven of Nine allowed Unimatrix Zero to create an active resistance movement in 2377. In 2378, a crippling blow was delivered to the Borg when ''Voyager'' discovered one of their transwarp hubs and destroyed it, killing the Borg Queen in the process (again).
In 2402, the Borg once again invaded the [[Alpha Quadrant]] decimating everything in their path. The [[Federation]], already weakened from the ongoing war with the [[Romulan]] Star Empire, was ill equipped to resist and the Borg invasion fleet pounded its way through [[Star Fleet]]'s meager defenses all the way to the Sol System. Mars was entirely assimilated and Earth would have been next if not for a combined force of [[Klingon]], [[Romulan]], [[Mirak Star League|Mirak]], [[Tholian]], [[Species 8472]] and [[Federation]] arriving and defeating the Borg invasion fleet. For a third and final time the Borg Queen was killed and the Borg threat to the [[Federation]] was believed to be removed once and for all.
In late 2419, a Borg presence was found on what was believed to be a rogue planet by the crew of the [[USS Artemis, EX-11000|USS Artemis]]. The rogue planet was actually a gargantuan vessel dubbed the "Megasphere" which contained potentially millions of Drones and construction facilities for Borg vessels. At the conclusion of the [[Attack on the Borg Megasphere]], it became known that these Borg were not truly of the Collective, but of the [[Borg Contingency]], a distinct and secret part of the Collective designed to activate in the event the Collective was destroyed and seek revenge on the Collective's destroyers before returning to Borg space and starting afresh.
