A Class M planet with an advanced civilization, Eminiar VII was at war with its neighbor planet, Vendikar, for more than 500 years. While on a diplomatic mission, the crew of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 discovered that the two planets learned to avoid the complete devastation of war by using computers to simulate the outcomes of a real attack. When a "hit" was scored by one of the planets, the people declared "dead" willingly walked into disintegration chambers and were vaporized. The U.S.S. Valiant NCC-1223 was destroyed during its visit more than fifty years earlier, and its crew on the surface were all killed. Captain Kirk and Commander Spock, however, managed to destroy the computers. Kirk told the Eminiar VII council members that they made this war too easy for themselves and that they would truly experience the horrors of war if they did not learn to make peace first. Federation ambassador Robert Fox remained on Eminiar VII to broker a peace between Eminiar VII and Vendikar.[1]
