History

In 2263 a vulcan delegation landet on the unpopulated planet and began with colonisation. Soon after two federartion and three klingon ships were involved in a fight, where all five ships were damaged too hard to find way back home. So they landed their crews on Orion VI. It was their luck, that the vulcans were present, otherwise they possibly would have murdered themselves, although all them being in the same boat. After the differences had been laid down the humans and the klingons decided to stay. Although their ships had suffered much damage, the communications systems were still ok. So the two groups told their homeplanets via subspace communication where they are and that they would stay.


Economy

Gold pressed latinum, product exchange


Tech Level

Modern, partially higher than federation (Communication systems)


Culture

The three populations had kept their differences, although a kind of a mixture of all them and some mor had been established. One of the points of interests is to give their common homeplanet a name! Many festivals, Writing outs and so on have only one goal: How could they name their home. A new music style had rosen from the three cultures that was even known on other planets.


Notes

The people of Orion VI weren't interested in making the planet a second Earth, Vulcan or Qo'nos. It isn't very simple to settle on Orion VI. The Orions, how they were sometimes called - which they don't like, due to the Syndicate with the similar name - are very liberal during contacts with other people, and every visitor is welcomed. Tourists report the friendly kind of the Orions. But if one decides to settle, you must be like themselves. Liberal, friendly (even the klingons on Orion VI were told to be so), and open for different thoughts.
