Outline of Untitled ZungAlexia Story
Version 12
(25 NOV 2016)
Time: ZungAlexia Year 199 UA; Earth Year 2381 CE, Stardate 58635.0 – 58648.0 (approximate)
Location: Milky Way Galaxy, Beta Quadrant; two separate unexplored sectors (as defined by Federation Standards),
outside Federation Space approximately 10,750 light-years from Earth.
Background
The ZungAlexian Star System lies within the Beta Quadrant, approximately 10,780 light-years from Sol (our
sun). Ten planets (five terrestrials, three gas giants and two ice giants), four dwarf planets and an asteroid belt
orbit a yellow dwarf star, similar to Sol, at the center of this star system. Of the five terrestrial planets, the
third and fourth planets developed Nitrogen–Oxygen atmospheres similar to Earth’s with plant and animal life
developing on both. However, on the third planet a humanoid species evolved on it. This species evolved and developed
very similar to Homo sapiens (Humans) on Earth and would eventually call themselves ZungAlexian and their sun
ZungAlexia.
ZungAlexian appearance is very similar to humans. They are also anatomically and physiologically similar to
humans but have a lifespan that is typically one and a half to two times longer than humans with some ZungAlexians
living even longer. Also, a very small percentage (0.0000125%) of the star system’s total population of 20 billion has
the abilities of telekinesis, telepathy or both.
The governmental authority of the star system is the United Republic of ZungAlexia (URZA) which is a united
federal constitutional republic; consisting of three branches: Legislative, Executive and Judicial. The government has
its modern roots in the Union of Federal Alexandrian Republics and its constitution which was enforce from the years
113 to 449 of the Age of Defiance [AoD] (1845-2181 CE). The United Republic’s ancient roots date back approximately
3,000 years, to the days before the founding of the Federal Republic of Zungzamia which eventually, became the Imperium
of Zungzamia.
Alien Contact
The ZungAlexians have had three major contacts with aliens. All three have involved an interstellar
government known as the United Federation of Planets. First Contact occurred in the year 138 AoD (1870 CE), about 100
years before the fall of the Imperium. This contact was never publicly disclosed to Imperial citizens nor was it known
to the Federation.
Second Contact took place in 288 AoD (2020 CE), 175 years after the formation of the Union of Federal
Alexandrian Republics (UFAR). UFAR publicly declared the contact however; this contact was also unknown to the
Federation.
The third contact took place in the year 199 of the Unity Age [UA] (2381 CE), nearly 200 years after the
formation of the United Republic of ZungAlexia. This contact was known to the citizens of ZungAlexia and eventually
all citizens of the Federation.
Present Time
URS Enterprise (RSC-1701) representing The United Republic of ZungAlexia encounters USS
Hubble (NCC-74915) representing the United Federation of Planets, in unexplored star system 70 light years from
ZungAlexia. This encounter marks the Federation’s first official contact with ZungAlexia.
The URZA and Federation ships head to ZungAlexia. ZungAlexian government officials meet with senior
officers of the Federation ship.
A State Dinner takes place. During the dinner, the United Republic Home Sector Force attempts a government
overthrow (coup d’état); invading the Legislative and Executive capital cities, directly attacking URZA Starfleet
Headquarters located near the Executive capital’s city limits and other government buildings. The attempted overthrow
is backed by the space fleet of the Imperium of Zungzamia. The military uses robots/androids to fight the bulk of the
ground battle.
