February

March

April

  • RSD 1/0904.28 (28 April): The Federation Council receives a response from the Romulan Star Empire. According to their Imperial Senate, the treaty must contain the provisions that no members of the warring races meet face-to-face, and that no ships may cross the proposed Neutral Zone. Additional information on the exact location, dimensions, and restrictions applying to the Neutral Zone are emphatically requested. Councilman Dannon, placed in charge of the subspace negotiations, responds within one week.[1]

May

  • RSD 1/0905.01 (1 May): The Battle of Cheron is fought in Romulan space between two squadrons of Federation ships and remnants of four Romulan groups. After "five stardates of continuous conflict," the battle ends inconclusively when neither side has any combat-capable ships remaining. Admiral Alex Hamilton, commanding the Federation Strike Force from the Marshall class U.S.S. Hannibal, however, declares that the Battle of Cheron is "the final and decisive engagement" of the Romulan War. The battle marks the Federation's last opportunity to organize a fleet strong enough to reach the supposed location of the Romulan homeworld. It is nevertheless considered a victory, as the Romulans lose more ships than the Federation does.[2][1]

June

July

  • RSD 1/0907.28 (28 July): The Romulans respond a second time, and insist on additional territorial gains for the Romulan Star Empire. In exchange, they are willing to accept tighter restrictions on Neutral Zone outposts. Councilman Dannon reluctantly makes many of the concessions, and Federation Council President Thorpe ratifies the completed Treaty of Peace. The treaty is transmitted to the Romulan Star Empire once more.[1]

September

  • RSD 1/0909.09 (9 September): The Imperial Senate of the Romulan Star Empire broadcasts its ratification of the Treaty of Peace on all subspace frequencies. The message is picked up by Federation starships along the border, and the terms of the treaty go into immediate effect. After 17 years of piratical attacks and declared hostilities, the Romulan War is over. The war ends inconclusively, after staggering losses on both sides. The treaty, negotiated by subspace radio, establishes a Neutral Zone, and no ships are allowed to cross between the two powers. No Federation forces have seen a Romulan face-to-face throughout the entire war, mostly because the Romulans refuse to allow a ship to be captured intact.[2][3][1]
  • RSD 1/0909.10 (10 September): The Romulan Neutral Zone, established by the peace treaty, is set up after much haggling over its exact dimensions and location. Ironically, the negotiations destroy the political aspirations of Councilman Abraham Dannon when his opponents claim that he, as chief negotiator, gave away too much of the disputed area to the Romulans. A period of withdrawal permitted by the treaty lasts until July 2112. All invading Federation and Romulan forces begin retreating at maximum warp speed to their respective sides of the new boundary.[4][1]

October

  • RSD 1/0910: At this time, realizing that they are technologically outclassed and outnumbered, and that they have no hope of winning a prolonged conflict, the Romulans consolidate along the new Federation-Romulan Neutral Zone. They begin major construction of outposts to keep track of Federation forces and keep them in check. Just homeward of these outposts, forces for future expansion into Federation territory are built.[5]
  • RSD 1/0910 through 1/2412 (October 2109 through December 2121): With the end of the Romulan War, the Orion Colonies realize that the Federation and the Klingon Empire will eventually meet. At this time, the Klingon military is occupied with raids against the weakened Romulan border. The Orions fear, however, that the Klingons will soon turn their attention again in the direction of Rigel and her interstellar holdings. Realizing that any contact between the Federation and the Klingon Empire must inevitably lead to armed conflict, the Orions hastily negotiate several non-aggression and trade treaties with the Federation, but still do not join.[3][6]

December

  • RSD 1/0912.03 (3 December): Mantiev is settled. The other three planets in the future Mantiev Colonial Association are settled within the next year. All are founded by various groups from the Federation. These are the only real efforts at colonizing the Triangle until 2140. It is their success that spurs the major wave of settlement 30 years later.[7]
