Reference Stardate 2/2101 through 2/2112
- RSD 2/21: R'thlana, with a small daughter in tow, establishes Luxury Apparel on Satterfeld, an independent world within the Triangle. The business, financed partly with money provided by Orion families but largely by Romulan Military Division Intelligence, prospers.

- RSD 2/21-2/23 (2221 through 2223): R'thlana, through Luxury Apparel, becomes an established, clandestine arms dealer. Becoming known as a ruthless trader, she also is known to give value for credits spent and to keep her mouth shut. She demonstrates that she can obtain almost any type of weapon on short notice, especially those of Romulan construction.[1]
- RSD 2/21: Now that immediate survival needs have been fulfilled, many of the colonists on Sherman's World become increasingly idle. The monarchs order the constabulary to seal and guard the food storage warehouses. A "No Work, No Eat" edict denies rations to anyone not contributing to the welfare of the colony. A food riot results, and one colonist is killed. Soon after, the monarchs withdraw the edict, but threaten to reestablish it if necessary.[2]

In spite of unfortunate confrontations between pirates and border fleet, the Romulans have become more approachable, and the trade curve is slowly inching upwards. In a speech celebrating his fifth year in power, Botchok Planetary Congress president Refner declares that the policy of aggressive neutrality has proven itself and will continue.[4]
