Outline of Untitled ZungAlexia Story
Version 9.0
(15 DEC 2015)
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 terrestrial, 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
[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 60 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 Defense Force
attempts a government overthrow (coup d’état); invading the Legislative and
Executive capital cities, directly attacking the URZA’s 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.
