[[Image:Ritorian-Male.jpg|thumb|150px|right]]The '''Ritorians''' have been known to Starfleet as often looking to expand their borders. When the [[Archanis Sector]] (current location of [[Starbase 332]]) was discovered, the [[Archa]] system was controlled by the native Archaan Royal Family. However, when the system was next visited during the USS ''Excelsior''’s 3-year mission the system seemed to be under the control of a new group calling themselves the [[Ritorian Confederacy]] - an occupation which the ''Excelsior''’s crew ended.

Little is known about how long the Ritorians had been in control of the Archa system, but it was quickly established that they were using a form of psyonic radiation to control the population of the system. Investigation by the ''Excelsior'' crew established that this was the Ritorians’ primary method of population control in areas they invaded.
 
 
 
The psyonic generators were placed throughout the planets of the system and controlled by an orbital facility above the central planet. According to studies carried out by [[Starfleet]]’s top scientists in Galactic South, over a period of time the psyonic radiation would placate the population to a point where they all but forgot that they were ever independent of the Ritorian Confederacy. Over this period (indiscernible by Federation scientists) the link could be broken by knocking out the Orbital facility from which the radiation is monitored and controlled.

The Bajorans are a very artistic, peaceful, and religious people and are one of the newer members of the United Federation of Planets.


Bajor has a very long history, dating back hundreds of thousands of years. Not as much is known as Federation historians would like, but it is enough to keep an archaeologist busy for their entire career. The Prophets influenced much of Bajor’s history after their orbs were found by Bajorans and they began to worship them as gods. The most well-known part of Bajoran history is the Cardassian Occupation which lasted from 2319 to 2369.

Bajoran civilization stretches back a million years, long before Humans learned to make tools or to speak. The Bajorans of the ancient past were well-known for their science, art, philosophy and mathematics. The greatest of the early Bajoran civilizations is the First Republic which existed from 25,000 to 20,000 years ago. This was the civilization that built the ancient city of B’Hala, which was known for its advanced science and art at the time it existed. The city was lost to time until Captain Benjamin Sisko rediscovered it.
