Alternative Star Trek Timeline - Part 2

22nd century

2101

Contact is made with the Romulans. The Vulcans push for a large scale military action, but Imperial Intelligence convinces Emperor Collins to wait for more information.

2103

Emperor Sean Collins dies from radiation exposure. The accident happened while touring a new starbase when the reactor destabilized and exploded. Admiral Alan Wolffe, son of former Emperor Edward Wolffe, succeeds him.

2105

Imperial Intelligence presents information regarding Romulan strengths and weaknesses. A year long operation within Romulan space using captured Romulan trade vessels gleaned much as to the boundaries, culture, and military strengths of the Romulan Star League. In addition, information was discovered about their trade allies, the Klingons.

2106

Emperor Alan Wolffe grants the Vulcans petition to attack the Romulans. Spearheaded by Imperial warships equipped with a prototype cloaking device, based on Intelligence findings, they are supported by large number of Vulcan Defense vessels.

2108

The ISS Minotaur, a Perseus Class Cruiser commanded by Vice Admiral Charles Young, leads a fleet of Perseus and Zeus Class warships, supported by Vulcan Bird of prey and Praetor class defense vessels and surprises a Romulan base repairing and refitting some fifty Romulan vessels. Because there were only skeleton crews aboard, most all of the ships are destroyed before firing a shot in defense. Eight Vulcan vessels are destroyed while delivering a deadly barrage of fire to the starbase causing it to explode. This delivers a crushing blow to the Romulan Star League.

2109

Admiral Charles Young takes a second expeditionary force into Romulan space, with it's target the Romulan homeworld. The fleet lays waste to Romulan defenses as they forge their way through.

In the weeks to follow, the Imperial Federation captures increasing amounts of Romulan held territory and colonies. On the eve of 2110, the massed fleet commanded by Admiral Young enters the Romulus system and destroys the remainder of their defense fleet. The fleet barrages Romulus with bio-thermic weapons and within hours, Romulus is a wasteland with over 4 billion dead. Nearby Remus evacuates, civilian transports heading for deep space with Romulan defense ships lagging behind to slow down the Imperial warships. Remus is captured shortly after.

2110

Romulan space is secured and annexed by the Vulcans, a gift from the Emperor. Vulcan imperial families are commissioned sectors of Romulan space and the Vulcan Defense Force is given authority to patrol the annexed territory in association with Imperial Starfleet warships. The Vulcan Protectorates is now 3 times it's previous size. Imperial Defense Outposts are built along the Vulcan-Klingon Border.

2143

The Aries Class Dreadnought becomes operational. This new class and all classes to follow use the dilithium balanced anti-matter/matter warp engines. This is mated with a more efficient shield generator design that makes for a powerful vessel.

2152

First contact with the Klingon Free States. The ISS Defiant fires on and cripples a Klingon scout vessel. Much about the Klingons are learned from the ship's computer and crew interrogations.

2175

Imperial Scientists Daystrom and Abramson devise the first practical, portable universal translator. Imperial Intelligence R&D quickly develops a minitiarized, subcutaneous version for their agents use while conducting covert operations in alien cultures.

2178

Through many attempts, the Imperial Vulcan Science Institute invents a stable transporter. Imperial Starfleet and Imperial Marine Corps orders all warships to be fitted with them as assault transporters for their marine forces.

2180

Extensive deposits of dilithium are found on Rigel XII, held by the Orion Trade Alliance. A shipment being sent secretly to the Klingon Free States prompts retaliation by the Imperial Federation. The Orion Trade Alliance is quickly annexed. They punish the Orions by barraging their home planet with bio-thermic weapons.

2186

A massive construction program is initiated to produce several new classes of destroyers, frigates, cruisers and dreadnoughts. This is to prepare for a massive military action against the Klingon Free States.

He demands the surrender of the Klingon Task Force. One of the Tecumseh Class cruisers picks up a second Klingon task Force on it's way to Axanar. Captain Garth immediately executes a tactical plan that results in the destruction of the Klingon Task Force at Axanar and disables the incoming Task Force.

Emperor Phineas Young declares war against the Klingon Free States.

2195

Due to his success at Axanar, Captain Garth is promoted to Rear Admiral and given command of the 6th and 8th Fleets. Over the next two years, he coordinates many victories against the Klingons, expanding Imperial holdings.

2197

2218

In a highly public trial, Captain Josea Cummings, commanding officer of the ISS Rattler, is defended by Imperial Starfleet against the Grand Imperial Council for his actions at vendikahr. Many individuals, including Ambassador Strategist Sarek, argue that it was correct to destroy Vendikahr, that the "Balance of Terror" must be maintained when one encounters Imperial Starfleet and the Imperial Federation. Captain Cummings is returned to the captaincy of the Rattler with a promotion to Commodore.

From there, the Imperial fleet separates into 6 groups, heading out in different directs, laying waste to all opposition that Regent Worf tries to mount. Alliance vessels were being boarded by the Borg Shock Marines, and crews were effectively assimilated, and the ship became part of the invading armada. Within two weeks, almost 80% of the original Imperial Federation's territory had been reclaimed. Two weeks after that, Cardassia Prime was a wasteland. The Klingon houses that were loyal to the old Imperial Federation reorganized swiftly and took over the Klingon High Council, executing the old council. They declare the Klingon-Cardassian Alliance nullified, and sue for peace with the Imperials. Regent Worf, in the combat field, received news of this and declares the governing council traitors to the Klingon people.

The new planet is renamed New Terra and the new government and its military forces is headquartered here. Terek Nor is destroyed and a new Battlestation and Shipyards are built, and defense platforms are placed around the wormhole to destroy anything that tries to come through.

The exiled government now reorganizes and creates a new political entity, the Imperial Confederation of Planets. The new hierarchy is comprised of loyal family lines from Earth, Vulcan, Andor, Kazons, and Q'onos. These families are given control of large sectors of the new ICP territories, and given titlements over them. The Confederation is led by an Emperor, who is advised by the Prime Regent and Council of Regents. The Imperial Cabinet of Ministers will administrate the ICP.

Each partner government in the new ICP is given Defense Fleets, with Confederation officers commanding the ships. They are also required to carry Borg marine Units, controlled by the Ship's Political Officer.
