2160 [reference stardate 1/07]
War continues as the Romulans penetrate the interplanetary security of
the Sector 5B Mining Complex, destroying this important Federation
resource [SFC].

The Sector 7 Wing Fleet is victorious over one entire Romulan armada
[FASA].

February [reference stardate 1/0702]
The first of scores of individual ship-versus-ship and ship-versus-outpost
encounters occur throughout this period of the Romulan War. Each side
wins several of these confrontations, but more often, the opposing forces
successfully destroy one another. This will continue on for over two
years [FASA].

The Federation/Romulan Non-Aggression Pact is drawn up [TNG #35].

S'chn T'gai Sarek is born in ShiKahr, Sas-a-Shar on Vulcan [JB].

T'Rea is born [GN 16].

Darov is also born during this era [GN 16].

The last Danon is born on Heartland (NC513-II) [ON 13].

[Y 44]
The Gorns battle a powerful and mysterious ship [SFB].

Gene Roddenberry commands the DY-1200 ship V.K. "Velikan" on a mission
into the Ficus sector to explore strange, new worlds [TNG 144].

2161, February [reference stardate 1/0802]
Continuing their advance into Federation space, Romulan ships form 'wolf
packs' to attack Federation transports. Three escorted Federation convoys
are attacked and destroyed in this manner. Officials believe Romulans are
hijacking the cargoes before destroying the transports. As they press
deeper into Federation space, the Romulans are becoming desperately short
of supplies [FASA].

The Quantum II 'time warp' star drive is developed. This PB-series cir-
cumferential (2nd generation) warp drive, based upon an exponential scale
of time warp factors, will enable the "Horizon/Archon" class starships to
extend the boundaries of the U.F.P. by hundreds of parsecs [STM, HCE].

19 March?
An unspecified federation is founded, possibly even a reformation of the
United Federation of Planets. The drafting of the Paris Charter this year
is probably directly related, and the signing of the U.F.P. Constitution
[TNG 217, GN 18, TNG 195].

Deneva is colonized as a trading-line base. The Symmetrist movement
starts a hostage situation on the first colony ship. Taking over the
ship, the group of radical environmentalists from Alpha Centauri threaten
to blow up the colony ship with explosives while still in orbit. The
radicals claim that it is necessary for the Federation to be taught a
lesson. Rather than allowing the colonists die due to environmental
collapse over decades, they feel that the authorities will take more
notice if all the colonists die at once. An assault team from the
"Archon" (NCC-189) attempts to board the colonists' ship, and 408
colonists (out of 650) die in addition to 32 Star Fleet personnel and
all the radicals [OA, GN 26].

Tyrtaeus II is colonized by Earth people not wanting any part of the
Federation and its network of cultures bound in interdependency.
Unfortunately the one mistake they make is the system's location:

too close to the soon-to-be-established Neutral Zone [TOS #83].

A Terran Star Fleet Academy on Earth is considered [TNG 219, SASH].

Growing for over a century as a lone entity, UESPA's many vessels are
incorporated into the Star Fleet of the new United Federation of Planets
[STD2].

02 May [reference stardate 1/0805.02]
Headed for the Triangle, a Romulan armada of 60 ships attacks three
Federation squadrons near Gamma Hydra. Though Federation forces are
outnumbered, both sides take heavy casualties. Star Fleet's new
tactics match Romulan ferocity, leaving both fleets badly depleted and
exhausted. However, the Romulans force a Federation retreat, and they
resume course for the Triangle. The 132nd Strike Squadron, under the
command of Admiral William Larson, reinforces the battered U.F.P. forces
and repulses the Romulan armada. This battle seriously weakens Star
Fleet, but it also prevents the formation of a major Romulan fleet in
the Triangle. Excluding isolated, small-scale engagements, the
Triangle remains Romulan-free for the remainder of the war [FASA].

The "Bradley" class advanced space tank enters service, each with a
complement of 8 [SFC].

25 July [reference stardate 1/0807.25]
Four Romulan squadrons bombard Alpha Omega B with star-bomb missiles,
rendering the planet uninhabitable. Two Romulan squadrons performing
diversionary tactics are wiped out by local defense squadrons, but
over 200,000 military and civilian personnel are killed in the main
attack. This marks the Romulans' deepest penetration into Federation
space [FASA].

September [reference stardate 1/0809]
Shortages of men, starships, and supplies reach critical levels for both
Federation and Romulan forces, as both fleets force deep penetrations into
their opposing governments' territory. Numerous raids and battle losses
make it increasingly difficult for either side to form effective
formations and continue the war [FASA].

The U.S.S. "Manassa" (FR-254) "Durance" class vessel is decommissioned and
scrapped [CTP].

01 November [reference stardate 1/0811.01]
While on an exploration and survey mission in the Triangle, the U.S.S.
"Cavalier" is ambushed by Romulan cruisers in a newly discovered planetary
system. After destroying the ship, the Romulan vessels move off without

bothering to examine the system. A twelve-man landing party, under the
command of Lieutenant Lawrence David Baker, is stranded there [FASA].

November [reference stardate 1/0811]
A U.F.P. fleet stumbles on a major Romulan base, dealing the enemy its
first true defeat. Over 30 Romulan war-vessels, manned only by skeleton
crews during resupply operations, are destroyed in orbit before they can
fire a shot. Six Star Fleet vessels are lost in the engagement when the
planetary base destroys itself after its shields had been seriously dam-
aged. The loss to the Romulan fleet is crippling, and the Romulan war
effort never fully recovers [FASA].

The planet Eden (UFC 3676543) is discovered by shipwrecked U.F.P. forces
in Romulan space during this era [STM].
