I got quite interested about this after reading the othert thread....
looked around on the interent but couldnt get any info from fansites(im at work and dont want to get caught surfing) so could someone have a look and get me a web address. The first person to get one get a thank you from me!!

well i can tell you what i can assume will have happened. the fedaration continues to pump out ships more combat related rather than science to protect thier borders. i.e prometheus, akira etc.

also ST: nemisis happened after the dominion war. voyager returned home after the war with the new technologies which will no doubt be studied and added to federation 'warships' meanwhile its a time of peace with the federation klingon alliance holding fast.

unless anybody else knows different go with that ;P

We'll really have to wait for the next canon addition (movie, etc) to know for sure.

In books, the Fed starts to realign the fleet towards exploration, and begins production of more dedicated explorers (Luna-class, etc.). Also, keeping the Alliance together is proving difficult, and a great deal of activity happens on DS9 itself.

Sources:
-post DS9 DS9 books: the 'Mission Gamma' series, 'Avatar' series, 'Unity', etc.
-'Titan: Taking Wing'
-'Articles of the Federation'

All are good books, but they are non-canon. Hopefully true canon will eventually suprecede or confirm this, but for now that's all we have. (I hope they change direction a little bit, they seem to have an unusual fixation with wiping Romulan civilization off the map, but that's just me. Great stories, though)

I have no clue about online sources, though.

Ye the Miranda's had been around for 80 years or so, why use them as most were destoryed which resulted in loss of lives and equipment. And like Mark_Campbell said the quadrant would have been a lot more equal than before. Maybe thats why Schinzon chose that time to launch his attack?

I thought Shinzon would've attacked anyway, but the presence of Picard was just a beneficial side effect! He hoped to kidnap Picard, kill him, get the bio-technobabble, and then get on with destroying Civilization As We Know It.

As for the Klingons, they are militarily decimated by the extra conflict they have endured, but their power structure is intact, unlike the Romulans. Their economic recovery will take a long time, but I don't think they have any threats at the moment.

The Romulans are currently the second most powerful of the Alliance, but have no governmental cohesiveness, and cannot present a unified front against anyone, post Shizon. In the latest books, there is even a question about whether the Star Empire will continue to exist much longer, rather than undergoing a process of breakup, civil war (with likely Klingon involvement), and reformation, perhaps as something entirely different. The resultant could be more unpleasant than ever, or the Federation's new 'bestest friend ever', depending on who wins.


Interesting books, unfortunately none of it is canon!

Ye, or maybe Rick Berman and Brannon Braga thought it would be good to set it then, but Schinzon would have found it more difficult when the federation had a lot more ships

What? HUH?

This has me all lost....

i love that spoof!!! NEARLY as good as BOTF 2:p

so in short, whats happening with the universe in this series (actually not in short tell us as much as you can!) I no its only fanfic but better than no fic!
